Getting married in Germany and all the questions concerning the legal paperwork need not be confusing. Your life history (single, divorced, etc) determines which legal papers you will need to have translated. The whole process does however need to be done accurately and timing is essential to avoid any disappointments for your wedding day. That’s where TLC UK can really help. |
Below is a list of typical requirements. These are for two British nationals marrying. If you are marrying a non-British national, please contact us for further information or fill out the Personal Situation Form below and we can start helping right away.

Please note that the above are national guidelines as issued by the British Embassy in Germany. Sometimes, requirements for particular hotels/regions can differ or change from the national guidelines. We strongly recommend that you check with your travel agent or directly with the hotel/town hall to get final confirmation on the combination of legal documents you require for your ceremony.
How do I translate documents for my wedding in Germany?
