Civil Marriage in Abu Dhabi and Dubai- the best option for couples, Including Tourists and Residents of the UAE.

Getting married in the UAE has become more convenient with the introduction of the new Civil Family Law in 2021. This law allows foreigners and expatriates in the UAE to apply for a Civil marriage, which is a legal union between a man and a woman conducted as a civil contract, following secular regulations and irrespective of faith or nationality. The Civil Marriage Law No. 14 of 2021, specifically under Articles 4 and 5, governs this type of marriage. The legislation emphasizes the importance of civil marriages being based on the voluntary decision of the couple, eliminating the need for consent from the woman's family. Moreover, foreigners can visit the UAE as tourists and legally marry in the country. For those seeking a swift marriage, a Civil marriage certificate can be obtained within 24 hours. Civil marriages can be conducted in various Emirates including Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
