This is not quite correct. You can apply in Cebu.
You can also apply for a local CNI through our Honorary British Consuls (HBC) listed below. Please contact the HBC in the area nearest you for an appointment.

No problem Pumpkins!

Hi Andy and welcome to the forum. We had to wait 10 days for the Legal Capacity thingy, I believe that is the norm here.

BTW - if you want to meet me when you arrive in Cebu - maybe I or my wife will be able to answer some of your questions.

You can get the Legal Capacity Certificate while you wait at the British Embassy in Manila, I'm not sure about the consulate in Cebu, but you'll probably have to wait up to 10 days for a marriage licence once you've got that. On top of that you'll probably have to attend a pre-marital seminar as well.

We had the option to attend the 'pre-marital seminar' or pay 400 peso's
This was in Manila, they may conduct things differently in Cebu

I believe you can usually get out of it almost anywhere if your a foriegner and you let them know you'd rather not do it and your prepared to pay to get around it.

Welcome, Andy ... and enjoy your forthcoming trip.

Hmm ... I'VE never been entirely sure how far the jurisdiction of the Consular Office in *Cebu extends in such matters. However, from the replies you've received to date, the consensus of opinion suggests it's possible to exchange your CNI *there ... IF you're prepared to wait 10 days ... whereas I DO know Legal Capacity can be obtained in a straightforward single transaction by travelling to Manila [which is what my wife and I did - albeit from Mindanao].

So, ... it would really seem to depend upon how much TIME you have at your disposal.

[pumpkins]

yes legal capacity to marry took only 20 minutes when me and my husband applied there..
still depending on the queue

Andy hi! .. welcome to the forum... I think I'm gonna late to say but better to say welcome you here and hope you enjoy your trip then and wish you good luck...
