How does a Thai citizen marry a Norway national in Thailand?

The Norway spouse obtains a Certificate of No Impediment (or equivalent affidavit) from the Norway Embassy in Bangkok, has it translated into Thai and legalized by the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs, then registers the marriage at any Thai amphur with two witnesses. After registration, request the English Kor Ror 3 and re-legalize it via MFA for use in Norway. Total time: 14-28 days.
