Re: Private British Citizenship ceremony - URGENT

Re: Naturlisation and passport BC Spouse

Anyone know if I can submit a certified translated copy of my marriage certificate as I can't find the original?

And if I apply online (with no support) can I send a my British passport photocopies of all pages rather than original , this is what what we did for ILR and it was ok.
