Divorce certificate to get married In Indonesia
Hello everyone, I was married to an Indian girl. Things didnt go well between us so we got a divorce through our Jamaath. Now I have a girl whom I like to get married. But the girl is from indonesia. I have a divorce certificate issued by that Jamaath. Can I just notarize my divorce certificate issue by the Jamaath and use for further attestation to get married in Indonesia. Or should I get a seperate divorce certificate. If so what is the process of getting the divorce certificate.

The following are the required documents.
Copy of passport
Copy of Birth Certificate;/li>
Indonesian authorities require that all non-Indonesian citizens obtain a Certificate of No Impediment to Marriage from their embassy prior to conducting the marriage ceremony in Indonesia. This certificate serves as a sworn affidavit witnessed by a Consular Officer at the Embassy or Consular office stating that the foreign bride/groom is legally free to marry. The embassy may have a particular form that you must complete, just contact the consular office and ask what the procedure is. The Indonesian fiance(e) must obtain a similar document from the government district office, or Kelurahan. Be advised that these No Impediment documents are only valid for 4 months.
Copy of Divorce Decree, if applicable
Passport sized pictures of you and your fiance with red or blue background
Tax receipt or proof of tax settled (for foreigner who works in Indonesia)
Copy of ITAS (Temporary Residence Permit Card) or your visa, if applicable
Citizenship letter and Endorsement Letter by Police (for those who live and reside in Indonesia).
All foreign language documents have to be translated into Indonesian by an authorized translator.
Note: The Muslim traditional marriage Nikah Siri is not accepted as a legal marriage by foreign governments. There are numerous disadvantages due to this lack of legal status.
