Title: Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
Post by: Glenn5344 on April 20, 2011, 10:54:36 pm: Hi,
I was married on the 29th December, 2010 in Wuhan a the Marriage office.
A month ago we had our house robbed and they took lots of documents and in these were our Marriage Books.
I am inquiring if anyone know how we could get another copy of the Marriage Certificate.
We currently live in Australia and I did not have any plans to travel to China, so need to get these copies certified and sent to Aussie.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I am not having much luck finding things on the net.

Thanks
Glenn :-\

They'll supply you with a Copy/ Replacement of the Red Book and the paper's are again to be picked up at a Notary Office . I don't think there is a way around this , but I could be wrong .. ?

1) Notify DIFAT in Aus...you will need this info about different red-book numbers ?? when you convert your wife to Permanent Resident Status

2) Notify your local Chinese Consulate (as Robert suggests)

3) Get a friend or family member in Wuhan to talk with the marriage office there and get their advice.

4) Make sure you have a Local Police Report on the burglary that includes the loss of your Red-Books....(will be useful for 1) above.)
