  • British citizen and non-EU visitor visa marriage

    1 answer



I hope to seek some advice on marrying my partner who is from South Africa. We have been together 2 years and she has visited me twice in the UK where I am born and lived my whole life. Am I allowed to marry her now whilst she is here but she is only on a visitor visa and I want to surprise her.

    @SJuan76 While interesting I don't think that link is relevant here as the OP is a UK citizen and wants to get married in the UK. That link referred to the catch-22 situation of the marriage not being recognized where they live and not being residents of where they were married.

  • Thanks for your responses. I would like to take her to a register office and marry. Just a bit tricky that she is here in the UK on a visitor visa so I don’t want any problems for her to occur after she leaves.
