Hi Everybody:
To start with I am a British national and my partner is a Ukraine national. I am in need of a small piece of information from anybody out there who has just recently tied the knot in the Ukraine
At the beginning January 2015 I am due to my my Ukrainian partner and as it stands, received my Certificate of Non-Impediment and together with other documents will send them to the FCO to have them apostilled. The next stage will be to have them translated and legalised into the Ukrainian language.
My question is for registration purposes in the Ukraine... Do I have to attend in person at the ZAGS office the 30 days before criteria or can my partner register for the both of us ?. Our plan (and has been organised) that we will spend Christmas and the New Year in the UK then fly to the Ukraine for the marriage in the Ukraine and stay with her family.
Has anybody been in a similar situation and travelled to the Ukraine for the purpose of marriage without travelling beforehand just to register.
Would appreciate all advice and experiences.
Thanks
