Wedding preparation may be a stressful process, and keeping track of the details can be challenging. If you choose a wedding planner, however, you can focus on other things while your wedding planners organize your dream wedding in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and across the UAE.

Marriage procedure in Abu Dhabi

In November 2021, the Abu Dhabi government established a new secular family law that allows non-Muslims (non-residents and foreigners) to marry legally. The Abu Dhabi court administration accepts marriage applications from people from other nations. The court assigns a wedding day to the couple when they will appear in court and sign the marriage license. On the same day, the couple receives a stamped registered marriage certificate from the court.

Required documents for Oman couples

The following documents must be submitted:

• a completed and signed marriage application form
• a copy of passport, or Emirates ID (of both parties)
• proof of no record of existing marriage (for both parties)
• marriage agreement (optional).

To conclude about your Abu Dhabi wedding

Abu Dhabi has made it to the top not only as the safest city on the planet but also as a contemporary, liberal, cosmopolitan city that permits young people to marry without fear of diplomatic or social repercussions.

However, the new regulation is only applicable to non-Muslims and countries that do not observe Sharia law. With that said, it is always advisable to speak with a wedding agency that can assist you in the proper manner if you do not want to take any chances with the validity of your wedding documents.
