Take the affidavit and supporting documents to a local Amphur and register yourselves as married. The Amphur will also require the following documents so ensure that you have all the documents certified as required:

* If either you or your Thai fiancee have been previously married the Amphur will want to see proof that prior marriages have been terminated; either divorce or death certificates. These documents if available should be translated into Thai prior to presentation at the Amphur.
