[Amss]

Hello there,
My nikah held placd recently in pakistan.My husband is an EAA member currently residing in UK. Now i am worried about my nikah acceptance in UK when i come there on spouse visa. Will we need to get our marriage registered in UK for its le
gal status or will nikah enough to make our marriage legal?
Thanku for kind response

If your husband is an EEA/EU citizen, you don't get a spouse visa. You apply for an EEA Family Permit.

If your husband is a British citizen, then you apply for a spouse visa.

Okay, then if i get EEA family permit..will my marriage be valid in uk or not?

And also initially i get 6 months visa..can u plz guide me what the next step after expiry of this 6 months visa, in case my husband does not hold permanent residence? Currently he is in uk on the basis of treaty rights.

The EEA family permit is technically not a visa.

Apply for a residence card once you are in the UK: https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... orm-eea-fm

I don't see why a Nikah from Pakistan would not be recognised by the UK. If the paperwork is not in English you will probably need to have it translated.

Thanku so much..but what do u mean by its not a visa, can u plz elaborate?
And once i get this permit n enter uk after how much time i can come back to visit my family? I mean is there any restriction of time period?
