Hi everyone,
I'm looking to marry a Catholic Vietnamese girl in her local church in HCMC as a "Non-Catholic" foreigner. She has been advised by the reverend at her local church that I must obtain a letter for any church outside of Vietnam stating that they give me permission to marry in a catholic church anywhere within Vietnam.
Has anyone out there had a similar experience?
Does anyone know the correct process for this situation?
When looking at the law/procedures on the Vatican website, nowhere does it mention that a formal letter is needed to be presented between churches to approve a marriage between a Non-Catholic to a Catholic. It is down to the reverend at the local church to make that call as per the instructions on the Vatican website.
Can anybody help me understand if I have missed something here?
Cheers
Brian
