She has not converted yet or you? Basically I believe you need to have the same religion in Indonesia to get married.
How one goes about converting, it is probably best to just speak to a local priest.
Hey all just after some info on getting married here. My Fiance is a 3/4 Chinese, 1/4 Balinese Catholic who is practicing Kong Hu Chu but so far has not converted. Confusing I know :). I know we'll have to convert in order to get married, does anyone know how to go about this as far as legality goes? What are the steps to gaining a marriage license after that.

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat drinking beer all day.

Kong Hu Chu is the Pope's younger brother. He runs his own business in a side street, just off Piazza San Pietro.

Kong Hu Chu is very similar to Buddhism, its a recognized religion in Indonesia and is practiced in temples all over the country. I'm aware we'll have to be the same religion in order to get married, from what I've been told though the amount of bullshit you have to go through to get married in most religions here its easier to get hitched over seas. Kong Hu Chu seemed like the easy option as my fiance was eventually going to convert and there is no problem with us getting married in the temple.
My question is where do we go to get a marriage license?.
I got all my paperwork from the village office from where my wife came from when I married [2 million] and the certificate later at the registry office in Singaraja.[ 100,000 IDR to get it fast, within 1 hour, as apparently the main registar was not in that day, yea??]
In this blog Becoming a Muslim in Semarang Java | Bali Blog there's an example how it could be. It's some time ago, but things don't change that much![]()
Not to sound racist but I like my chances with the Chinese Buddhist rather than the Javanese Muslim. It helps that my fiances uncle works at the Temple as well. :)
I'll let everyone know how things go.
