Marriage in Morocco - documents

All advice is welcome!
Thank you very much in advance!

From experience of advising people against such catastrophic decisions, I doubt all advise is welcomed, and that I will be thanked. But anyway I will give it a try... My advice based on reading your topic is to avoid like the plague. I've noticed there is a trend - Getting married to those based in Eastern-Europe. I'm assuming they think it's easier to be granted with an EU Visa - With the main goal of using it as a bridge (freedom of movement) to Western-Europe, their real intended destination, rather than directly trying to move there (as it's probably harder). You know, go to Bulgaria, Romania, Poland and so on, then move to the EU country of their choice. Doesn't take a genius to figure out this common intention.

We will see what would be happen! I want to be with him, and he wants be with me! If we can't marry in Morocco , we will in Bulgaria or UK, or somewhere in another country!

You don't need help from anyone. He is a Moroccan citizen, living in Morocco. He should know, or go out of his way to know, everything about mixed-marriage in his country - (unless he is busy with more important matters to him, which seems to be the case with many of them - forcing their foreign partner to do the research). Then share the information with you. It's really that simple. He should be able to tell you what you need to bring. And you bring it to Morocco. That's all. If you decide to get married in Bulgaria, then the responsibility will fall on you to provide him with all the details about marriage in your country. You are not going to expect him to go on a Bulgaria-Forum online, and ask people for help, are you?

So likewise, I'm not sure why you need help from anyone else apart from your partner. I take it that he's too busy of course. At least I hope it's for good reasons. It's quite common in North African countries for someone to be already married, or in a relationship, yet strike up a relationship with a foreigner for visa and/or financial reasons. Here on this very site, there are stories of how foreigners later on found out about their partners secret family. Most of the time, the entire family is in it, knowing that they will benefit from a marriage of convenience. Instead of spending time researching about how to get married there, research about stories of those who did get married. There isn't a shortage of sham marriages.

Admittedly it's quite difficult to read them for someone who seems intent in getting married, as it means you will have to accept that there might not be a future in it. But the temporary pain, makes up for the longer-lasting pain of divorce, being left emotionally & financially ruined, as many have come to experience. Again, on this site, there are threads about how to get divorced (usually as a result of mixed-marriage between Westerner/North-African/Arab). You might think it's a subject that you will never have to consider, but so did those posting. Learn from their stories. I'm not here pretending to know his motive. I don't. Neither am I here to tell you what to do. But rather to advise you to make sure you equip yourself with all the relevant knowledge, so you know what you're getting into, in order to be well prepared before committing. As marriage is a life-time commitment, and quite frankly, judging from this thread, it's a disaster waiting to happen. How do I know? Seen it many times already. But I wish you much luck. I don't usually hope I'm proven wrong, but I will.

If you got any questions, ask them. What specifically do you want to know about mixed-marriage in Morocco that you don't already know about?

Fortunately, there is zero chance of getting your fiance to the UK, or Sweden for that matter, so that you can marry him. I think you would have a really hard time getting him into Bulgaria even.

Give this up please.
