Can anyone help me with documents info?

Hi everyone!

 

I am a little confused about something regarding birth certificates.....

 

We both have full British birth certificates and at the top of them it says 'certified copy'

So does that mean that they are fine to send as they are (a copy of the originals) or do we need to take them to a solicitor to make a copy and sign?

 

Im struggling to find any info that is related to american documents.

 

I am hoping that someone will be able to help me please!

Hi

We took our originals to a solicitor. They photocopied and then stamped their name and address on the bottom, and signed it. Think it cost us £10. I then scanned the documents and emailed to the Wedding Coordinator, rather than wasting £70+ to post them.

Hope this helps.

I agree with kitty, above. That's what we're doing. Taking ours to a person to copy and notorize that it's indeed a true copy of our originals.

 

We are mailing those to the resort and then taking our originals down with us.

Good Luck

Thank you to both of you!

 

That has helped me get my mind straight!

 

Once that is sorted then I think there isnt much more to do!

When we got to resort, they didn't ask to see our documents. I offered them but she said it was fine and only a precaution in case the notorized ones didn't arrive!
