3 days, wow it was fast.

I am from Canada it took us 2 weeks to finalized everything and get the marriage done.

Congrats.

@ooiihoel

Yeah Alhamdullilah, as long as you’re organised and know what you have to do when you get to Morocco then it’s a simple process, although it helps if the courts and police station aren’t too busy.

@Shaw7mick

May Allah swt give you plenty barakah to you your spouse and family and everything goes smoothly Ameen

@Shaw7mick

Congratulations.

it does seem that the marriage progress has simplified in the last two years or so.

I had to go to the consulate in Marrakech when I got married and then take my documents to Rabat to have them verified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs - you dont mention this, so assuming that is now no longer needed which saves a day.

@Shaw7mick

Salaam.

what are the steps to get the CNI apostilled. Where do I send it to and how long does it take

thanks

@laurencej96

You only need to get them legalised if you’re getting what you need from the consulate but I didn’t do it but because I had an apostille for my CNI and passport certified in the UK, then there was no need for me to get them legalised at the ministry of foreign affairs, so yes it did save a day.

@Shahmiah2000

There’s many apostille services in the UK, personally I used a place in Coventry, I drove there which took me 30 mins, dropped it off to them and the next day it was ready for me to collect.

@Shaw7mick

Hi, Congratulations on getting married.

We are planning to get married in Morocco too Insha Allah. My case is bit different as I’m an Indian national residing in Canada.

As I understand I need (before)

1. Capacity of Marriage (apostilled)
2. Indian PCC (apostilled)
3. Birth Certificate (optional?)
4. Employment letter
5. Payslips
6. Residence proof
7. Passport copy

From Indian Embassy (Rabat)

1. Certificate of non impediment
2. Certificate of Nationality cum Birth cert
3. Certificate of Single Status

Ministry of Foreign Affairs

1. Get documents attested from ministry

Ministry of Justice

1. Stamped Criminal Record (online)

Medical Certificate

Translation

1. Above all documents to be translated to Arabic (4-6 certified copies)

The process

Save time by sending Scanned copies of your documents in advance to your fiancé for translation

Day 1

1. Arrive in Rabat, visit Indian Embassy to get Certificate of non impediment + Certificate de Nationality and Birth
2. Get criminal records (stamped) from Ministry of Justice, Rabat
3. Fax documents for translation same day for fast

Day 2

1. Grab Translated documents, make 4-6 certified copies and visit Adoul to receive letter of request for marriage

Day 3

1. Visit to Family and Social Affairs court for approval.
2. After this, go to police station for interview and verification
3. They will inform when to go to court again (3-7 days?)

Day 4-10

1. Wait till approval letter received
2. Once received, call Adoul and he will arrange to sign the contact of marriage.

@Shaw7mick, Please let me know If I’m missing something and your advise on making the process faster.

@sayeedmgmt19

The only thing I’d say is that it’s a must to have your original birth certificate with you, other than that, your daily plan seems great, you have a chance to get it done within 7-8 days if all goes planned and there’s no delays over there with the police and courts, I’d advise you to give your adoul a little something as a gift too to help you abit more.

@Shaw7mick

Thanks for your advice. 🙂

Does original birth certificate or copy need to be attested or apostilled and same for police clearance ?

@sayeedmgmt19

Your birth certificate doesn’t need to have an apostille, your police record will need one.

@Shaw7mick

Thanks

I checked with Indian consulate and they issue PCC for below purposes not marriage:

1. Immigration purpose other than Citizenship
2. Employment/Employment Visa/Work Permit
3. Residence Permit
4. Citizenship/Nationality
5. Adoption
6. Education/Research
7. Tourist Visa
8. Long Term Visa/Stay

Wondering which one would be acceptable in Morocco court, Please guide?

@Shaw7mick

Could you give me the name of the place in Coventry that does the apostille service?

thanks

You need apostille for only the Certificate of no impediment (CNI). Still check with your local court as they may have it different. ask for a list of requirements from the court. Everything will be on it:

CNI (apostilled)

a basic DRB certificate

birth certificate

employment letter

doctors certificate from Morocco for both of you

police report for foreigners (apply online and collect from a police station of your choice).

divorce certificate if divorced (certified to be a true copy by solicitor).

passport photo page copy (certified by solicitor).

The Hague Apostille (in Coventry) google them.

£92 per document but you’ll only need to apostille one document and that’s the CNI (unless the court asks for additional documents to be apostilled.

Salam, i see some people have mentioned Apostille is only required for the CNI and others have mentioned it is also required for the Acro, would it be wise to get both done ? Also do any other documents require Apostille ? Anybody here gone through the process in Marrakech and had any other experience with the process which might be helpful info ? Thanks in advance.
