Re: Polygamy or not - Confused
Thank you all for such a wonderful help . You all are STARS and i got my answer ..
Apologies for this as i am slow in understanding One last question i do have with me
As UK rules deny anyone getting married to polygamy marriage which means if a husband is already married but from country which allows Polygamy YET wife cannot spouse her husband as this is against the rule no matter from which country the other person is .

Your 2nd (polygamous) marriage (to the UK citizen) is not recognized by the UK immigration authorities.
It does not matter whether the marriage is recognized/legal in your home country/the country in which it took place.
Does that help??

The only way to straighten things out is to divorce your first wife, and after the divorce is final/absolute, (re)marry your second wife. Then, for your visa application, you will need a copy of the divorce document that predates the date on your marriage certificate.
