Legal capacity to marry

Hi Neil,

I saw your post and we have the same situation. I was wondering if I can ask you some advice about the matter. Your reply will be much appreciated. Thanks 🙏🏼

Hi Neil, Is there any update regarding on how long it will take to receive the legal capacity to marry after the interview? Thanks

Hi All
The first thing to understand is that the Certificate in Lieu of Legal Capacity to Marry is only a document that has been notarized by your government usually at there embassy or consulate! It takes only a few minutes to do once you have did your waiting time to be served! You fill out the document they give you at embassy and sign in the presence of official who calls you to window and raise your right hand and swear you are not married and are legally able to marry! That's it!

Hi,

I have also the same issue. My fiance is Saudian living in Malaysia and we are confused about whether he needs to take the Legal Capacity from the Saudi Consulate in the Philippines or he can get it from the his embassy here in Malaysia?

Any update, please?

Hi, Me and my fiance are planning to get married this year. Do we have to set an appointment to the embassy to get his legal capacity to marry or we can go directly to their office and get the document? ☺
