All About China > Marrying A Lady In China
Doing it the UK way!
David5o:
Paul,
I've never heard of anyone putting up bands in UK for use abroad, in fact i can't see how that would work, seeing as you first need to apply to be married in that foreign country!!!
I maybe wrong Paul, but I've never heard of this or know of anyone doing the bands thing this way. I'm doubtful myself!!

Hi david
You have a choice.
You can have your intention posted up in UK for 21 days to see if anyone objects or you can have the notice posted up in China for 21 days.
To post in the UK you need to have been at the address provided for one month before posting and for China 21 days before posting.

Hi Willy,
As i said, i've never heard of being able to do it this way, but if it helps anyone out, seems good to me.
Do you have to take proof with you, that the bands have been posted in the UK?? Just seems strange to me that you can post the bands, before you have officially applied for the marriage!!!
Got to be the way to go about things then, ...as Paul say's saves the 21 day wait in China!!

Yes you have to get a certificate of no impediment from the registrar then take it to the Foreign office legalisation dept in Milton Keynes then to the Chinese embassy in London.
I still have the original one I intended to use when I first came here.

Willy,
Ah, now i'm with you, ....i think!! haha!! I didn't know that you still had to post the bands as a condition of getting the ''No Impediment'' Certificate. I was under the impression that a registrar check was performed and if found everything in order the Cert was issued.
So what your talking about is producing a No Impediment cert' instead of the waiting 21 days to apply and the 21 days of band posting in China. What i was thinking Paul was talking about was the 21 days living in China, route of getting married in China, and having bands posted in the UK before arriving in China to save time. Why didn't he just say he was going the Cert' of No Impediment route?? ....haha!!
Maybe it's me, maybe that age thing is creeping in even higher!! hahaha!!
