Getting married abroad
Contact the local authorities in the country where you want
to get married or enter into a civil partnership to find out what you
need to do.
Your marriage or civil partnership should be recognised in the UK if you follow the correct process according to local law.
You might be asked to get certain documents from the UK government if you’re a British national. Use this tool to find out:
- which documents you can get
- how to apply for them
There’s a separate guide if you want to get married or enter into a civil partnership in the UK.
