To ensure that your marriage in Indonesia is valid and legal in the United Kingdom, please note the following carefully:

1. As proof that you have been legally married, please ensure that you are given a marriage certificate by the marriage authority in Indonesia. You should always keep a legalized copy of the marriage certificate for future reference. Since most of the documents will be written in the Indonesian language, should you decide to move to the United Kingdom with your Indonesian spouse, we suggest that you get all the documentation translated by a sworn and authorized English translator whilst in Indonesia. Upon arrival in the United Kingdom, you should then register this translated document/certificate at your local marriage registration office.
2. Alternatively, if you wish to have the marriage documents certified in the United Kingdom, then following your arrival in the United Kingdom, you may come to the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia in London where the documents will be translated and legalized. This translation should then be taken to your local marriage registration office to be registered.
