Marriage visitor visa refusal

Upvote:2

I have been living in Egypt with my partner (married in Egyptian court, not at the Embassy) for the past 6 years. We applied to come to the UK on a marriage visitor visa. Our intentions were to get married, visit my family (I am English) and both return to Egypt after 3 months.

As you are already legally married in Egypt, you don't qualify for a marriage visitor visa - which is for a partner who needs to travel to the UK for the purpose of getting married.

Your marriage in Egypt is legally valid in the UK.

If you and your partner would like to visit the UK, I would recommend:

Getting your marriage certificate certified by the appropriate authorities, then translated (if not already in English) and have the translation certified as well.
If you are a UK citizen you only need to apply for a regular visitor visa for your spouse. This should be a lot simpler process.
