CENOMAR, CNI and Marriage in the Philippines

[rusty]

Very informative post, thanks

I think the requirements for marriage differ depending where you are planning to get married.

In our case, I have previously been married and am not catholic but we were given permission to marry in the catholic church.

I think the whole process took us about 4 week, including attending the seminars.

Hi Ricky I am little confused about these details here
==Option A
Obtain CNI in the UK, and convert in Philippines

1) Visit your local registrar, request a CNI
2) WAIT 21 DAYS
3) Visit the British Embassy in Manila or Honorary Consul in Cebu to exchange CNI for a Consular CNI.
4) Marriage License Request at City Hall
5) WAIT 10 DAYS
6) Receive Marriage License

Minimum of 32 days, with at least 10 days in the Philippines==

I understood that take my CNI go to embassy get it converted collect it I am told next day of very soon wait 10 days in the local town of marriage.

2 days Travel.
1 day embassy appointment.
2 days get back to local town after collecting my Convereted CNI.
10 days wait for marriage license.
(during the 10 days get my CENOMAR delivered in 3 days )
allow another day for delays.

So thats about 17 days so far.
Get married leaves me a few days for honeymoon or longer if get Visa extension.

Am i correct here?

Many thanks John
