ANY AUSTRALIAN RESIDENTS MARRIED OVERSEAS?
Hi,
I'm English (now an AUS citizen) looking to marry my Dutch (PR) girlfriend in The Netherlands. I was wondering if anyone on here has had experience of the application process. There's guidelines online but I'm finding it a bit overwhelming.
We both have a NO RECORDS RESULT cert from the Victorian Births, Marriages and Death dept. Now, we have to send that to the DFAT in Canberra...and here's where I get confused because I don't know what else they want and whether my UK birth certificate is relevant to them, the Dutch Consulate, or if I have to get it signed in the UK.
Any relevant advice would be much appreciated.
Regards,
John

If you weren't born in Australia then the fact that you now hold Australian citizenship is irrelevant.
