Love / Getting married in Poland (papers stating we are eligible to get married?) Certificate of no impediment. [24]

I'm still trying to figure out the steps. I have got a decent idea now of what needs to be done, I just still don't have any idea on how to go about doing it... Slightly more broken down processes would be greatly appreciated. At this point I have accepted the fact that I will have to pay for an extra flight to poland and back before the wedding. I just need to decide on when I will do it, and what needs to be done with the courts before I go there. Ideally I would like to stay for about a week but cannot stay longer than 2 do to work. Thanks again for any help!

OK, so we both need to get a certificate of no impediment from our respective countries. She has told me that she will have no issue getting hers from her country. Getting one from the US seems to be a little bit more tricky, can someone please give me a link to a place where I can get such a certificate? Or at least a link to a place to find more instructions, numbers to call or people to contact?

Beyond obtaining these forms, we will need to present them before the court IN POLAND and state (personally, as in I will have to travel there) that we are both eligible to be married and that we want to get married to each other. Then later we go back and get a decision from the court. Is this correct? Do we need other documents to present to the court? Is it necessary to hire a lawyer for it? That just sounds like overkill to get married...

We plan on getting married in Zakopane, or at least that is where the ceremony will be, it will not be a catholic ceremony so there is nothing there that we need to worry about.

I really just need to know what I should get started on right now seeing as time will very quickly become an issue. Thank you so much for all the replies!

Ok so my fiance and I are going to be getting married in June and the plan is to have the wedding in Poland. I am a US citizen and she is a Mongolian citizen who has been living in Poland for quite some time now. If anyone could provide us with the details we need and the process we must go through to be able to get married in Poland that would be great.

So far I understand that we will both need a paper stating that we are both eligible to get married. What exactly is the name of this document and how would we go about obtaining one? From what I have read I can't get one in the US, which is where I will be until a week before the wedding.

Please any details would be greatly appreciated. I have been told that it can take up to 3 months for the Polish government to make a decision on whether or not we can get married so naturally I am starting to get a little worried seeing as the wedding is in about 4 months and we have just started looking into all this.

Thank you so much for any help!
