If you are already in the United Kingdom and do not have settled status (permission to live here permanently) you will need to apply to the Home Office for a certificate of approval before giving notice to a registrar to marry or register your civil partnership.
The certificate of approval requirement does not currently apply to marriages in the Anglican church in England and Wales.
