Marriage thread. September 2021
Re: Marriage thread. September 2021
Question: why does the Khmer party need a medical certificate to marry? What are they trying to screen? Probably one of the few countries in the world that blocks a marriage based on health issues?
Re: Marriage thread. September 2021
Both parties need a prenuptial medical, there are no conditions that will result in the marriage application being denied by the MoFAIC or the MoI, it is so that both parties are aware of any conditions that their partner may have and can make their own decision on whether they still want to marry them.

They should have a financial report and bank statements handed in also, '' so that both parties are aware of any conditions that their partner may have and can make their own decision on whether they still want to marry them.''

Why do you need a business Visa to get married?5. Passport with valid E type (Ordinary MEEV) visa, minimum 6 months validity
So If I don't intend on opening a business in Cambodia the only way to even stay there with the intention of getting married is for some Cambodian company to send me a letter of invitation?

Re: Marriage thread. September 2021
E type is not a business visa, it is just an ordinary visa, even if it has often been called that. There is an EB extension used for working/ business, ER for retirement, ES for student etc. At least 6 months extension is needed.andrejsl wrote: ↑Fri Jun 30, 2023 8:19 pmWhy do you need a business Visa to get married?5.

Silence, exile, and cunning.

I will probably need more than a month to get the paperwork for marriage ready. Can I extend it for the purpose of marrying?John Bingham wrote: ↑Fri Jun 30, 2023 9:04 pmE type is not a business visa, it is just an ordinary visa, even if it has often been called that.

Re: Marriage thread. September 2021
The Cambodian partner will need to present;
1. "Certificate of celibacy...
This one caught my eye. No doubt it wasn't a problem for most of the guys on this forum who married Cambodian women.

Arrive on a e-type visa, extend to a 3, 6 month EG extension ( looking for work) no paperwork needed
no problem

Re: Marriage thread. September 2021
I don't know if this has already been pointed out but just in case - getting married in Cambodia exposes you to improsonment for a maximum oif one year and fine up to 1 million riel if you commit adultery.
If you got married outside Cambodia no offence is committed since Cambodia does not recognise foreign marriages.
Article 7:
Adultery is the act of a married man having sexual intercourse with a woman who is not his wife,
or the act of a married woman having sexual intercourse with a man who is not her husband.
A person commits the offence of adultery if:
• he has sexual intercourse with another woman while he is still married to his wife, and
his marriage is not yet dissolved.
• she has sexual intercourse with another man while she is still married to her husband, and
her marriage is not yet dissolved.
Article 10:
Anyone convicted of the offences in article 6 and article 7 of this law will be sentenced to a term
of imprisonment of between 1 month and 1 year or a fine of between 200,000 riels and
1,000,000 riels, or both.(Monogamy Act 2006).
