if i get an annulment from the civil courts, is this already sufficient to re-marry again in the church?

Question

was wed at the church initially, but would want to re-marry again. is there a separate annulment needed from the catholic church assuming, an annulment was granted by the civil courts? situation is in the philippines.
thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You have to request an annulment form from your local Diocese.
It's a simple form but answer it honestly and to the best of your views on the situation.
There's a fee, but that's the way it is.
I'm in the USA; but annulments all over the world by the Catholic Church are the same and governed by the Vatican.
A civil annulment will help your case.
Best luck.

Answer 2

In the United States, I have a girlfriend who did this. She also had to do something with the church, but I don't believe it was too much for her to handle.

Answer 3

Nope. You need to have the marriage declared invalid in the Church. The good news is this is easy these days, it just takes lots of money.

Good luck.
