    Getting Married in Thailand - To Register Or Not


    Here are your Three options:

    Option 1: Have a wedding ceremony and register the marriage legally at the local Amphur Office.


    The Ceremony
    (videos below)

    The Thai wedding ceremony includes lots of rituals, monks blessing the event, a dowry given, the whole village showing up and lots of Loa Khao and beer being consumed by Thai people you have never seen before and will probably never see again!.

    Registering at the Amphur Office

    Registering the marriage registration makes the union legal in Thailand and the marriage is also recognized by many countries. Registering the marriage will pave the way for the foreigner to live in Thailand with his Thai bride or get the ball rolling if he wants to relocate her to his home country. Both will come with hoops and juggling acts to get done. The Thai hoops may include weird questions about your life together and submitting embarrassing photos of you in a Thai house sitting on a bed together or in front of the house pointing at the address. To resettle your wife to your country she may be asked if she ever4 engaged in prostitution, sex trafficking or terrorist bomb making!

    Conditions for MarriageRequirements for Marriage

    Marriage may only be celebrated when the following are present: For Thai nationals:
    1. House Registration Certificate
    2. Proof of death of previous spouse or divorce decree, if applicable
    3. National ID Card

    For Foreigners:Option 2: The Village Ceremony Minus the Registration Hassles

    This option is just the ceremony as results in the family and people that live in your Thai lady's village recognizing the wedding as being legitimate, but the Thai government, nor any other country will recognize the union. This will not help you be allowed to stay in Thailand. It is good enough for a foreigner who is on a retirement VISA, working or teaching in Thailand or is only part time in Thailand. The benefit to this route is either party can do a runner and no formal divorce is needed! For full details on the ceremony part, read option 1 above, but pay no attention to the part about registering the marriage!

    Option 3: Elope

    The two of you need to run away from your lady's family and just go register the marriage without a party of dowry. I know of several lucky farangs that were able to do this, but is not all that common. Most Thai girlfriends and their families will see this as a loss of face and demand the drunken ceremony with a full dowry! See option 1 to learn about the registering the marriage, but skip part about the ceremony.

The Bangrak District Office outside of Bangkok has been rated over the years as the friendliest office for foreigners (farang friendly) to register their marriages at.

      2. Parties must not be insane or incompetent to enter into marriage
      A certificate of competence should be a requirement, for such foolishness is self evident.
