guest43236 Hi all,

2 questions, I am from the UK intending to marry my chinese girlfriend in May:

(1) what documents will i need to this? we are getting married in hangzhou

(2) Once we are married what visa can i get for her and how do i go about doing it? again required documents etc/timescales

Any experience from UK would be much appreciated as i imagine there are differences with the US and UK.

Thanks in advance for any guys/gals that can help me, out of my depth here and really really need some help!!

Cheers

Matt

GUEST43236 Thanks for your reply but a lot of the discussion has been US based.

Also a lot of the discussion has been fragmented and contradictory, so I was therefore trying to obtain some more concrete, solid information. My questions are specific though.

GUEST25203 Hi, this page may help:
http://ukinchina.fco.gov.uk/en/help-for-british-nationals/living-in-china/how-register-marriage
Checkout the "word.doc" file too, normally you would have to reside in China for 21 days, but, there are ways around it.
Hope this helps

P.S: I'm off to China on Thursday, yippeeeeeeeeee, never been abroad, I can't wait ;-)
