Requirements for Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage (LCCN) Filipino marrying a foreign national

Spending hours by calling the Philippine Embassy Office in Qatar is not a joke.  Going there just to know the requirements is not so sweet either.

Save time, effort and money in going to the embassy by having these documents ready onhand:

1. Certificate of No Marriage Record (CENOMAR) issued by NSO and duly authenticated by DFA (aka redribbon)- original and photocopy
2. Birth Certificate issued by NSO and duly authenticated by DFA (aka redribbon)- original and photocopy
3. One (1) colored copy of passport of the contracting parties
4. One (1) piece visa photofor both parties
5. Affidavit of Intent to Marry (available at the embassy), you must fill it up there and find 2 Kabayans to sign as your witness
6. Fees- QAR 200 cash                                                                                                                                                         Avoid Monday and Wednesday processing as it is Ms. Remy's (Civil Registrar) bussiest days.
