FAQ
- What is an Affidavit / Affirmation of Freedom to Marry?
- A consular statement from your home-country embassy confirming there is no legal impediment to marriage. Thai amphurs require it before registering a marriage between a Thai national and a foreigner.
- Why must it pass MFA Thailand?
- Thai amphurs require two additional steps: (1) certified Thai translation and (2) legalization by the Thai MFA Consular Department (Chaeng Watthana). NYC handles the entire chain in 3–5 business days.
- How long does the whole process take?
- Embassy booking (1–8 weeks depending on country) + embassy issuance (1–5 days) + MFA + translation (3–5 days) = 2–10 weeks in total.
- Can I prepare paperwork in my home country first?
- Yes for several: US notary + Apostille, UK Register Office + FCDO Apostille, German Standesamt, Dutch Gemeente Den Haag. NYC picks up the MFA + Thai translation in Thailand.
