Questions couples ask
Can two foreigners get married in Thailand?
Yes. All nationalities, all religions, all genders can register their marriage in Thailand.
Do we both need to come?
Yes, both of you sign at the district office.
A double visit is possible: appear for the MFA step, then come again for the registration.
How long do we stay in Thailand?
6 working days minimum in Thailand; we recommend 8 to 10.
With the 1-day route you spend 1 working day in Thailand: your documents and a power of attorney are legalized before you arrive.
MFA legalization takes 3 to 5 working days.
Weekends and Thai holidays do not count.
You need no special visa: any entry that lets you stay for the days needed is enough.
What documents do we need to get married in Thailand?
Two documents each: a single certificate and a certified copy of your passport, both legalized.
The exact names depend on your country; ELSA gives you yours when you start.
Can we pick our own date?
Yes, any working day. District offices are closed on weekends and Thai holidays.
We fix the date once your documents are approved.
What happens on the day?
We pick you up.
At the district office, you both sign.
You receive your Thai marriage certificate the same day.
Can we courier the documents?
Yes, with the 1-day route: you send us your legalized documents and a power of attorney legalized through the same chain, and we legalize them at the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs before you arrive.
Without that power of attorney the Ministry needs you to have entered Thailand: it asks for the identity page and the visa page of your passport.
Can we use the certificate abroad?
We translate and legalize it back to English.
How your country accepts it depends on your country. Our lawyer advises you. Please consult your country's immigration lawyer.
