  1. You need to contact the Turkish Embassy.


  2.   Documents necessary to be married in Turkey:

    1. Marriage petition (Evlenme Beyannamesi)

    2. Certificate of Capacity to Marry (Evlenme Ehliyet Belgesi): either a marriage license from your own country, or a statement from your country's consulate or embassy in Turkey

    3. Personal identification (passport, identification card, birth certificate or health certificate)

    4. Photographs of the bride and groom (four copies of each) for the official records.

    You see that one of these (passport) you probably have already. Another (photos of bride and groom) is fairly easy to get well before you leave home.

    You'll also save money, time and trouble by obtaining a marriage license from the appropriate authorities Turkish embassy (IRELAND

    Turkish Embassy) 11, Clyde Road, Ballsbridge Dublin 4,Ireland

    Tel: (00.353)16 68 52 40in your own country before coming to Turkey. If this is difficult (because you're already in Turkey), you can obtain one from your country's embassy or consulate in Ankara, or perhaps in another Turkish city.

    That leaves only the Marriage petition to be obtained in Turkey

      

  3. 2. If you are divorced you will need your divorce papers translated, certified by a solicitor in the UK and stamped by the local registry office. In Turkey they have a family book, which makes things a bit easier.

    All your documents must be translated into Turkish by a certified translator.

    The only British consulate in Turkey seems to be in Istanbul. Check this with the Foreign office in the UK.

    Each of you will need 4 identical passport photos. Straight on and not smiling.

    Do you want to bring your Turkish husband to the UK? You might like to ask immigration about what papers he has to provide to ensure this.

    You yourself will almost certainly be asked to prove that your accommodation is suitable for two people, that you are in employment and that your husband will not be seeking social benefits.

    You have to remember that the UK has a 'socialist' government.

  4. Couldn't your TUrkish boyfriend ask and learn these better than you?

  5. Don't do it. Don't sell your soul to the devil.
