About:Marriage Registration in China

Hi All,

I'm a Chinese living in the United Kingdom under tier 1 post-study work visa. My visa will expire in 2012 February, so my boyfriend (French but also works in the UK) and I are planning to get married soon.

My concern is in which country we should register our marriage - China, UK or France? I heard of the Chinese law don't recognise dual nationalities. If it's the case, is it suppose to mean getting married in either UK or France will make me to lose my Chinese nationality?

I am seeking for a solution which helps me first, keeping Chinese nationality; second, getting married with my French boyfriend and both working in the UK for a few years. Although we would also like to relocate to China after our UK experience.

Any advise will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You won't lose your Chinese nationality even if you get married in UK or France. Married to a foreign national doesn't mean you join the nationality of another country.

But it is complex for you to get married in UK, you can choose France or China to make marriage registration.
