    Paper work nightmare

    I am hoping to marry in Poland in July. I was married before in Spain in civil marriage. I have read I would need from Polish court agreement that I am divorced & free to marry. Is this true? As I am trying to marry in the Church the paper work there is also time consuming.

    List of Documents needed. (Please add to list if needed)
    Civil
    1. Birth certificate (Translated)
    2. Passport
    3. Letter of freedom from Foreign Office. (Divorced) (Translated)
    4. Marriage cert from last marriage? Spanish to polish translation?
    These documents could get me certificate from Polish civil office to allow the marriage in the church.

    List of Church Documents needed (Please add to list if needed)
    Please help with document length of validation i.e. 3months or 6 months
    1. Baptismal certificate (3 Months)
    2. Confirmation cert
    3. Parish Church letter of freedom (Which Parish. The Church I go too or home address)
    4. Letter from School that I studied Religion
    5. Civil licence to marry (see above)
    6. Letter from local parish of Marriage announcement.
    Help me my mind is melting

    Kind regards Gar

    make sure you get an Apostille on your birth cert (must be the a4 kind) and on the freedom to marry doc. Also you should officially translate your passport.

    The Apostilles should be translated also.

    Check the notice period in Poland as you may have to have everything submitted in person in advance.

    Not sure if you can marry in church since you are a divorcee.

    Check out the various embassy sites i.e. American & British embassies in Poland for more info.

    Good Luck

    I was looking for the Church I was baptized in the other day. It is now a Nursing home. I will have to hunt down where the records have moved too. I am thinking the make it this hard to marry to make you think is this what you really want to do! I am a lucky man this will not get the better of me :)
