Regarding Maurizio, and the problem he has, it might be a good idea for him to go back to the Divorce County court where he obtained his divorce decree absolute and take the absolute decree to the district registry and apply for a "No impediment to Marriage" certificate, its £25.00, that should do the trick, then he needs to go to the Italian Embassy in Manila or consulate in Cebu if their is one, and get a "Legal Capacity for marriage" and then he should be ok.
I think thats the required procedure.
