Civil Ceramony Question

    Hi guys,

    Have my meeting on friday with the HSE,

    They have in the list of things to bring a birth cert and under that

    N.B. If either party was born outside of Ireland, a Birth Certificate bearing an Apostille Stamp from the Embassy of origin is required. If an Apostille stamp is not obtainable, then a letter from that Embassy attesting the authenticity of the certificate should be supplied.

    I was born in england and left when i was 3, i have an irish passport and my mum doesn't know if it has an apostille stamp :S

    Should i go to the english embassy or is this only for countries outside the euro zone?

    Also since its a civil ceramony in a registered hotel will it only be a €150 we have to pay or is it more?

    As for your question about the cert I don't know.

    About the price though, you will probably have to pay travel expenses. And as for it being a registered hotel, no external venue is registered for civil ceremonies, as far as I know. Each application is viewed individually. However, if they have held a civil ceremony there before it's highly unlikely that there would be any problem.

    €150 is the fee you pay hse for the civil ceremony. If you're getting married in an approved venue then you'll pay a mileage allowance for the reistrar to travel to the venue. We paid around €45.

    The venue may also charge room hire but that's completely separate to the hse charges.

    Have the meeting in Dublin, but the wedding in Kilkenny, Spoke with the person officiating the ceromony and she knows the wedding planner and location in Kilkenny :S So hopefully that is all :D

    The cert however is proving more troublesome, i can't find anything online regarding it, I mean i'm an irish citizen my birth cert says im born in england but i have my passport and everything else, Me thinks its just a racket to extort money.
