HOW TO LEGALLY MARRY A THAI GIRL IN THAILAND,STEP BY STEP GUIDE

You are so much in love with your Thai girlfriend. You think this Thai girl is definitely the ONE for you. Now you are thinking of making her your wife,legally. If you would like to do so in Thailand, I will show you how to legally marry a Thai girl and get a marriage certificate in Thailand, step by step.
  • The foreign male partner must get the letter for affidavit of legal capacity to marry ( certificate of singleness) from his embassy in Thailand.
  • Have the singleness certificate translated into Thai language. Click here for translation guide.
  • Have the Thai translated singleness certificate authenticated by the ministry of foreign affair in Bangkok.
  • Go to Amphur along with
FOREIGN PARTNER
  • the letter for affidavit of legal capacity to marry ,the original english version and the thai translated version that was authenticated from the ministry of foreign affair in Bangkok.The letter must say
  • You are qualified and eligible to marry a thai national under thai law
  • Your occupation and income:
  • *** You must have an income if you are male partner because you will be supporting your wife.***
  • **No minimum income required.**So don't worry if you are not rich.
  • Your married status is single or divorced :
  • ** If you are divorced,do you have any legal and/or financial obligation.**
  • ***the word single or divorced must appear in the letter.If none, you can't get married.***so make sure your document has one of these words.
  • Your 2 references to support your statements:
  • full name,contact telephone number,complete address of two of your families or friends in your own country.***not in thailand***
  • Your valid passport or ID with valid visa to stay in Thailand.
THAI PARTNER

  • Thai valid ID card
  • House registration
  • Divorced paper ( if divorced)
  • Name or surname change document (if you've changed name or surname)
  • Birth certificate of your children( if you have any children together)
***All original ducuments and 1 copy of each***except ID card, need 2 copies.

  • You need to bring along two witnesses and one translator to Ampur.Each Ampur has different standard.This Ampur might says your Thai partner can be the translator.But the other says no!That Ampur says you need 2 witnesses and this Ampur says 1 witness is ok.Some Ampur you don't need any witness or translator at all. Ampur officers can be your witnesses and translator for you.But of course you have to give them some money for their assistance.So check with the Ampur that you will get marrid first.You can get married at any Ampur in thailand.But I suggest you get married in Bangkok.They would have more experience with thai-foreigner marriage,which will make your life much easier.So good luck and have a very happy married life!!
