Marriage Registration in Thailand
Professional assistance for foreigners registering their marriage at Pattaya District Office — document preparation, certified translation, and full guidance.
Register Your Marriage in Pattaya
Thailand allows foreigners to legally register their marriage at any district office (Amphoe). The process requires certified translations of your documents into Thai, along with an affidavit from your home country's embassy confirming your eligibility to marry.
Our team handles the entire paperwork process — from embassy affidavit assistance and certified translation to accompanying you to the district office. We have helped hundreds of couples complete their marriage registration smoothly and efficiently.
Required Documents
Valid Passport
Original passport for both parties, valid for at least 6 months. Copies will be certified.
Embassy Affidavit
A declaration from your home country's embassy or consulate confirming you are free to marry. We assist with the process.
Certified Thai Translation
All foreign documents must be translated into Thai by a certified translator and notarised.
