Can my Fiancé get an affidavit of eligibility to marry from a lawyer in his country or does he have to come to Kenya to obtain it from the US Embassy?

[@NinaGichunji]

Since the marriage will take place in Kenya he should obtain it from a lawyer or better yet to make things easier from the US embassy. All the very best😊

[@em.o.a]

​@NinaGichunji thank you so much for your response.

[@christinewaithaka8188]

Hi I wanted to inquire if you are doing a special license in church what is the total cost for the license

[@NinaGichunji]

Am sure you can but only the church leader dealing with this can tell you the cost here. All the very best though

[@blessedme4181]

Hi, i and my fiancee are both foreigners. We are in kenya right now but we were told that we cant marry here because we dont have resident. Right now we are frustrated because we followed everything on the website.

[@NinaGichunji]

That’s quite unfortunate so sorry dear, l believe that you can get a marriage certificate from your country of origin since Kenya one partner must be a resident. I hope you guys wed soon all the best😊

Hello, for Christian, Islam, traditional and Hindu they have to follow a longer protocol since it’s the leaders who do the follow ups for the couples

Yes if their passport is not visa free in Kenya

[@kalekye]

Before you choose an interview date they will send you a notification that all documents are okay or need to be resubmitted then after doing so successfully, you pay and choose an interview date might take a week or three days it depends on seasons (some seasons are high pick for weddings and others are very low) all the best😊

Nothing serious, just reconfirming your name, date of birth same as your partner and then they confirm if you’re birth certificate is the same as your national Id that’s mostly about it then you choose the day you want to do your wedding 😊 all the very best
