    Ciao Tutti! I'm so glad to have found this group as reading previous posts has given me already some sort of a relief. So I'm originally Asian with a British Passport.

  2. Philippines Expat Forum
    My father and future stepmother want a paperwork wedding that is valid in Saudi Arabia. They want to know the quickest way of doing this, with as little fuss as possible. They don’t want a big ceremony, just the documents. This is because one lives in Saudi and the other in Philippines and they...
  3. Philippines Expat Forum
    A little context: My wife (Filipino) and I (US) have been together since 2017. I lived in the Philippines for 3 years with her.

  5. Life in Australia
    Hello, I tried to do some research but I am still quite lost. It seems there is not much difference between Registered de facto and Marriage in Australia (apart from international and interstate recognition). What about de facto and registered de facto? I came with my partner and we are both...

  8. Spain Expat Forum for Expats Living in Spain
    I was hoping I could get some free advice here. We're at our wit's end and were hoping someone might be able to lend a hand. We came to Spain, very innocently, not realizing that Canadians required legalization of all documents so in COVID times, the wait times were incredibly long to get...
  9. Spain Expat Forum for Expats Living in Spain
    For marriages celebrated outside of Spain before 2019, Spanish law applies a series of criteria to determine what country's law governs the division of the couple's assets. According to these criteria, it seems that my husband and I fall under UK law. For some reasons particular to our financial...
