Get Married in Church UAE: Seychelles vs Dubai. Legal requirements

|

You must have heard that the UAE recently came to us with the new law issuance that has made many things easy for the expats living in that region. But the fact of the matter is that there is no very big change regarding marriages. That’s because you still need to get married if you want to live as a Family or want to acquire sponsors in Dubai. In simple words, you still need to get married if you want to completely enjoy the perks of a family. If you are planning to get married in Dubai Church, then read how to get married in Dubai church mentioned below. It might also make you reconsider your decision.

Dubai church requirements to get married!

So, first thing first. You need to stop thinking that getting married in Dubai church is a short and hassle-free process. It can cost you weeks because of the long list of requirements that you need to meet. We have only compiled the most important ones here that almost everyone should fulfill regardless of their nationalities.

Both of the spouses will need to provide the church with the following on their wedding day:

  • Original passports along with photocopies
  • Passport size photos
  • Original birth certificates
  • Original certificates of marital status that information if you’re widowed, divorced, or single
  • One of the spouses must be a UAE resident or at least have an employment visa
  • Two people as witnesses with their passports and national IDs (Not necessarily relatives)

That’s not all. Many countries require their citizens living in Dubai to apply for their wedding in their country’s embassy or consulate. The United Kingdom is one of those countries. Moreover, the embassies and consulates also ask you to get your wedding date finalized with the church before applying.
