## What happens next

The embassy or notary public can take your oath or affirmation and witness your notice of marriage. The notary public may charge 2 separate fees for this.

If you give notice at a notary public, you must post the signed forms to the British embassy in Warsaw afterwards.

$A
Consular section
British Embassy
ul. Kawalerii 12
00-468 Warsaw
Mazowieckie
Poland
$A

The embassy will display your notice of marriage publicly for 7 days. They’ll then send all of your documentation to the British embassy or consulate, who will issue your CNI (as long as nobody has registered an objection).

There’s an additional fee for this - you must complete a [payment form](/government/publications/credit-card-payment-authorisation-form-poland) and email it to the embassy in Warsaw.

$C
<mailto:Warsaw[email protected]>

The embassy will contact you to confirm that the payment was accepted.

You can collect the CNI from the embassy or ask for it it to be sent by post to an address in Poland.

If you’re getting married in a registry office, you must give them your CNI at least one month and one day before your wedding. If you’re getting married in a church, you can do this 2 days before the wedding.

You will be asked to provide a copy of your birth certificate. Make sure you send a [certified copy](/order-copy-birth-death-marriage-certificate) as you won’t get it back.
