Getting married in Morocco

dude ,

you need to lighten Up, if you have had a bad experience because you made a bad selection and a bad decision it does not mean all are the same as you choice remember how to build your relationship becomes the result so if you met someone over the net it means you have less than 50% chance of a good result but if you really knocked on doors you will find that there good families here who are honorable and better than us in faith and religion and conduct.

I have married a Morrocan girl which is my second wife, I am so happy and my life and family is full of joy and i hope you find someone as same mouhajaba and a great wife and a pleasant face to great you at home and all the respect in world you would ever need.

-What is city of your prospective wife?

-I recommend to work hard for your documents carefully and go by yourself as hiring a lawyer in your absence is risky and do not try to make case complex for nothing.Poeple there are mix of good and bad.Despite of lot of rumors about money giving.I assure you that we even did not give a single dirham to anyone during the all process.Ofcourse people have difference expereince but Morocco is not different then any third world country.


All it need a good preparation when you enter in the country.Let me know if you have futher questions

Wish you best of luck.

Hi my name is Richard or (Rachid) in Arabic I am a New Zealander I married a moroccian muslium lady I've been married to her for 3 and a half years I've been through DIAC 2 times and my wife's visa has been denied both times im doing the right thing by pay the application fees and still they deny her so so wrong the migration government if you are married to someone for that long and you want to be with your wife then that should be the right thing to do is give her a visa I've spent a lot of money supporting my wife it makes you want to end your life but that's not the right thing to say or do im just being silly our age difference is 31 years but that should not matter when we both love each other so much. Our wedding was the best experience I've had in my hole life she changed 6 times during the night and I changed 3 times I loved every minute of it the music and all the dancing was so whelming so im contemplating on going over there to live is there a process I have to go threw to get a stay of residency in Morocco cause that's where my wife wants me to go and live I don't want to go threw all that visa apps again and they well take my money then to thanks for letting me speak out and letting me tell my story if you want to reply to me you can 3likcom Salam, inch Allah, Bislama!

Congratulations to you both! It is a very hard process for all of us when we fall in love with someone across the globe! They have to know we love each other for not giving up with all the stress!! Good Luck to you in your move to Morocco :)

Hola a todos,
I have read all the posts above, very informative but did not find none showing previous experience of a moroccan woman marring a spanish man!
I am a moroccan woman from Casablanca never been married before  and no kids yet and i am in the proccess of marrying a very attaching spanich that i am fully in love with him.
We first met in real here in Casablanca et c'était le coup de foudre instantly :).from there we decided to officialise our relationship. We start preparing the documents needed for both sides (his from Sevilla, mine from Casablanca) mine were certificed, legalized , some at the tribunal of family in Casa, some at the ministry of foreign affairs in Rabat, so finally i got all my documents full of stamps and signatures (that gave them a colorfull design)just for fun...and of course this needed money for travels go and return, formalities but in no case no one asked us for extras or corruption at all...then after translating some documents in arabic, we had to pay 120 dhs each in all we pass around 20 days and directy put all the papers in the spanish consulate in casablanca plus about 700 dhs , it was on 2sd May 2013 , 5 days after the consulate send us a fixed day/hour to pass an interview on 29 August but we did not pass it cause seems there are some unknown troubles insides the spanish consulate  .. After many insistances we finally meet the person supposed to ask us thousands of questions each one apart and it took more then one hour with almost no mistake :)but across my fingers , that happened on this last 24 October ... We still waiting for this document (illegibility to marry)
I wish to know how to procceed for the next step in details to have our  paperwork done?
All stressful period ... Hope good lucky for all who are wiling to marry a foreigner and congrats to all those got married !
Cheers

Hi I am a uk citizen and myself and partner are looking to get married in the uk and then have a ceremony in Morocco. I do not know how to go about this and would appreciate any help! Many Thanks

Can an american marry a moroccan in morocco if the american has a criminal record in America?

I know of a Canadian man who had a criminal record, but who had a pardon so that he could get a 'clean' police record from Canada.  So maybe you'll want to see if you qualify for a pardon. 

Also, FYI (and you may know this) a Moroccan Female can not marry a non-Muslim man in Morocco, and if you marry outside of Morocco the marriage may not (will not) be recognized in Morocco.   The man must convert to Islam (an easy process).   This may chance if someone challenges the constitutionality of the law.

which country do i ask for the pardon from? morocco or America?

One applies for a pardon from the jurisdiction where the crime was prosecuted.  I assume that a state pardon for a state crime is easier to get than a Federal pardon for a federal crime.  Also, there is often a time requirement (years) of "good behavior" before a pardon will be allowed.  m

hi dear jav can u please in box me ur number

thanks

Yes i plan to get married in Morocco at the end of June

Congratulations Vicki! <3

Hi everyone.

Ive noticed that alot of people ask for help re mixed marriage in Morocco. Here is my own personal experience that i want to share.

Some information you might want to know is that im from New Zealand and my partner is Moroccan and we completed this whole process is Agadir, Morocco.

Step One: Before leaving your home country you should sort these papers

1. No Impediment to Marriage certificate
2. Updated Birth Certificate
3. Criminal records from Home country
4. Certificate of Previous employment stating dates worked and annual salary
5. Certificate of Nationality (If your country does not have this then your birth certificate and passport will be fine)
6. Certificate of Religion

After you have all these papers you should take them to a notary public or a government official to state that the documents are true and accurate.
They need to put there signature and stamp on your papers.
After this you then need them to be translated to ARABIC. DO NOT TRANSLATE TO FRENCH IT WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

After the translation you then need to send all the papers to the moroccan embassy designated for your country. For New Zealand it was the Moroccan embassy in Australia. You need to include in the package a cash cheque for them to put the special stamps on the papers and a prepaid courier bag to send the papers back to you.
(For information on how much you need to send for the cash cheque you should contact the moroccan embassy for your country)

Once all of this is done you are good to go to Morocco.
Once you are in Morocco you need to go to the MINISTRY DE LA JUSTICE , RABAT. Its a day trip and you need to get your criminal records from there. Get them done up in arabic. Cost is 30dh.

Once you have this paper you and your partner need to go see a doctor in Morocco and get a general test done on both of you. This includes general check up, xray and blood tests. cost is 200dh each.

After this your partner needs his or her moroccan national identidy card (THE NEW ONE), criminal records from his or her city of residence, no impediment to marriage certificate and an updated birth certificate.

Once he has these you can both take all your papers to an adoul. He is the one that will help you to marry in court. Depeding on your country it will range between 2000 to 3000 dh.

Then your done...fianlly!!!!

It sounds simple, but Its the most time gruely process and EXPENSIVE i might add but worth it in the end.

Give your self plenty of time. Theres always something or someone to sting you money wise around each corner so be prepared for a few shocks. (It always good to know someone in the legal systems e.g.: A main police officer or official, Morocco is unfortunately corrupt in more ways then one so what ever you think it may cost you be prepared to double it as under the table cash payments to even simply admin workers will help you get your things done faster. Sad but true).

Please responde if this has helped some of you to get a better understanding.

if you have any questions please feel free to ask :)

Since our marriage in Morocco we now both live in New Zealand and have been married over 3 years now and still going strong. All i can say is if you are going to Morocco to meet the love of your life, take your time...there is really no need to rush. If someone is trying to wine and dine you on the first visit to marriage then reconsider. i remember sitting in the courts with a couple of other moroccan/foreigners wanting to get married and i could see how fake it really all was. It was funny because wen me and my partner went to get signed off from the police and judge they actually said they were ''refreshed'' to find a couple that were around the same age (I'm younger) wanting to get married, they seem to see way to many illegitimate marriages, and i could see what they mean.

Ici, le mari affecté tente d'appeler sa femme , le beau-frère ne le permet pas de la parler. Il est un docteur! Cette famille avait soudoyé les autorités et tribunal pour le mariage pour des raisons inexpliquées . Maintenant évite le mari étranger et réclamer plus d'argent . Cette fille, affirme ses copains et parents précédentes qu'elle est 'Mentallement et Psychologiquement déséquilibré. Elle a l'hystérie et le comportement incontrôlé . Elle a frappé le mari au marché public à Casablanca le lendemain du mariage due à une explosion incontrôlée de l'hystérie ! Elle l'a également frappé à plusieurs reprises , y compris la veille du noce! . Elle , sa mère et frères cachaient ce fait de ses problèmes de comportement qu'elle avait depuis l'enfance . Elle est une grande menteuse de temps et en plus elle est séductrice .

Elle travaillait dans un centre d'appel à Marrakech et a affirmé qu'elle était le chef d'une équipe de très haut niveau , comme un PDG . Après le mariage , elle rejoint un centre de langues populaire à Casablanca tromper le mari et éventuellement bander les yeux de la direction. Ce centre de langue a informé qu'elle a démissionné de son travail sur le 19 octobre 2012 alors que le personnel et étudiants admiraient ses photos sexy dans son faux Facebook !

La mère de la jeune fille a été une employée au bureau Préfecture Marrakech et à Casablanca . Son père séparé et divorcé a été employé dans le port et l'aéroport marin de Casablanca au département des douanes .
y compris la façon dont cette fille a crié à son mari " Voulez-vous mon certificat de virginité ? " Et comment sa mère a crié .. " Ne pas poser des questions sur son père .. si vous voulez venir et divorcer ! " seulement 45 jours après le mariage ! . Ils n'ont pas donné un original de l'acte de mariage de l'époux et menacé le mari qu'il sera traité par ses deux frères qui sont fort et musclés.
Quand le mari a contacté les nombreux amis de sexe masculin étranges qu'elle avait dans son ancien facebook ORIGINAL , beaucoup ont confirmé qu'ils avaient des relations étranges en ligne et en temps réel lui a rendu visite dans Marrakech où elle travaillait avant .

Malgré cela sa mère innocemment et hypocritement prétendait que sa fille ne quitte jamais seul la maison et quelle l'accompagnait tout le temps . Mais l'hypocrite mère portait le Hijab ne sait pas que sa fille a été trouvée par les piscines en bikini et dans les pubs avec des lunettes de liqueur tard dans la nuit et peut-être au mois de Ramadan aussi! À la fin de 2012, quelqu'un a envoyé des e-mails de manière anonyme à son mari avec des photos nues de sa femme ! Espérons que la mère qui portait le hijab était là aussi quand ces photos ont été prises comme elle le prétend que sa fille ne sortait jamais de la maison sans elle!

Elle a volé de l'argent hors de la lumière du jour cru plusieurs fois tromper . Le jour Eid-ul- Adha elle a affirmé que si le mari l'aime , il devrait lui donner son mot de passe bancaire et le mot de passe de son e-mail ! Le mari a donné substantielle » Maher selon la norme marocaine ainsi que des vêtements et accessoires qu'elle n'a jamais eu dans sa garde-robe .Pourtant, elle n'a jamais donné même un trombone pour lui. Elle est matérialiste et veut de l'argent!

Elle a pris 26 000 Dirhams marocains ou plus par la force de son mari ( en dehors de Maher ) Plus tard , la mère défend c'est le coût de la mari de rester avec la femme dans la maison de la femme de 14 jours avant et 14 jours après le mariage ! Pouvez-vous croire qu'ils m'ont fait payer ce montant ?
Beaucoup d'étrangers et marocains Hommes confirme sa prise de Bar à avoir des relations sexuelles.

Malgré cela sa mère innocemment et hypocritement prétendait que sa fille ne quitte jamais seul la maison et quelle l'accompagnait tout le temps. À la fin de 2012, quelqu'un a envoyé des e-mails de manière anonyme à son mari avec des photos nues de sa femme ! Espérons que la mère qui portait le hijab était là aussi quand ces photos ont été prises comme elle le prétend que sa fille ne sortait jamais de la maison sans elle!

Quand le mari est allé voir des avocats en septembre 2013, avec de nombreuses photos de la preuve de l'adultère et «autres titres» ,son jeune frère a menacé de casser la jambe et d'autres menaces. La femme a dit qu'elle sait dans quel hôtel le mari est resté et a menacé. En outre le même jour, des inconnus avaient frappé la chambre d'hôtel du mari à 03h30.

Please NOTE, All those listed documents are need to be submitted by the FOREIGNER ONLY.

The local bride/groom has nothing to submit and nothing to declare if they are already married.
Many women who have been abandoned by their Moroccan husband or women who are raped or lost their virginity and unable to remarry a Moroccan Man will pretend unmarried and cover up.
Many want to just escape Morocco for no apparent reason.

Just Google and see Moroccan Marriage Scam, Fake Moroccan Marriage etc you will find a lot of corruption.

My advice to you is to forget the whole matter. Don't get married to a Moroccan. It nearly always ends in grief with the non-Moroccan partner being abandoned once the Moroccan gets nationality. So many people say, "But my fiancé/fiancée is different, s/he LURVES me". Don't believe that for a moment. Please NEVER send money to a Moroccan fiancé/fiancée or their family - if they ask, they are scamming you.

If you want to persist with this, you can marry in Morocco - please look upthread for instructions on what to do. I very much doubt that the UK authorities would be so stupid as to let the Moroccan husband of a Portuguese national into the UK. And I have to say that I agree with them.

Do a bit of research on the internet to see what the chances of success in this proposed marriage are. Then decide in view of that information.

Good luck.

Are all Moroccans that bad?

No I didn't meet him on a website was when I was on holiday and after some time we got together etc we been together for some time...like I said our families have met etc...I would never marry anyone that I just met online that's crazy to me.im just so confused with the whole thing after reading some peoples comments

Point taken

There is always the chance that it could work. But that chance is minute and tiny as you can see from this and other blogs and forums. It is such a small chance that I would not consider doing it and would advise others not to take it. If people come onto this forum to assure you that their Moroccan husband/wife is different, then there is a tiny chance that this is true, but a far greater chance that their misery has yet to begin once the Moroccan gets nationality or leave to remain in the victim's country.

I have just had a message on FB from a British woman who blocked me about a year ago. I do admire her for having messaged me. We stopped being FB "friends" because she asked me to say frankly what I thought about her marrying a Moroccan guy she had met while on holiday and with whom she had fallen in "lurve" and the guy said he was in lurve with her too. Seeing as she is 62 and fat and the lad was an utter, fabulous looking, broad-shouldered hunk of 24 (she sent me photos), I said that she must be mad to think that this could work out or that he could "love" her in any way, shape or form. I said that he just wanted the visa. She got angry, said that he was different and truly loved her and despite my saying that she had asked me to be frank, she blocked me.

I got a message from her today. She had been going over every 2 months, having a wonderful time. She had been sending him money for a flat and living costs as this poor lad "couldn't find a job". She got some unexpected time off work a couple of weeks ago and decided to pop over as a surprise, bought the ticket that day and left. The London flight arrives in Casablanca at 20:30 and then she has to get a taxi to his town, so she got to the flat at about 23:00. After she let herself in with her key, she found loverboy in bed with a woman who appeared to be his wife - at least, the flat was full of women's clothes, make up, jewellery and so on. They must have been emptying it out every time she came over and this Moroccan woman must have been returning "home" after the English woman left.

She apologised for blocking me and getting angry. She said that she could see it all so clearly now, things added up. Stuff like his refusing to take her ever to meet his parents (although this is unusual - the parents are usually in on the scam), the demands for money on top of the monthly sums she was sending him (Granny needs a scanner, my brother's ceiling fell down, my cousin needs a lawyer and so on). He must have been giving that woman he was with a good time on the money from the UK.

This is what they do. They are poor and we are (meant to be) rich. They have no conscience about this. They would do it to another Moroccan if they could get away with it, but Moroccans are much too crafty. We are brought up generally to believe what people say is the truth. They are not. We generally tell the truth. They are taught to lie very young. Often they lie if they do not need to.

I hate generalising and it doesn't apply to all people in Morocco. Unfortunately, the ones who don't lie are likely to be rich or upper middle to upper class and have no interest in marrying a foreigner because they have what they want already so foreigners often don't meet them. It's the spivs, the layabouts, the chancers, the bad girls who latch onto foreign women and men (and gay men too) and want to get out of a life of poverty and will do anything to achieve their aim.

You guys have really opened my eyes...I'm not going to be another victim I refuse.after reading everything I called him and said we not going to work out I'm too young yo get married (27)..so let's call it a day.my phone don't stop ringing etc.but it's true I really don't know him we'll enough to get married and I'm not even Muslim I'm a catholic so I don't see how both religious could work.i wish more woman  would open their eyes and not fall for their trap.i feel sad but good at the same time I'm not yet another victim.

Please stay firm. This guy's meal ticket for life has just disappeared. He will keep on ringing, begging and pleading. PLEASE, do not give in.

Just to reassure you that neither xb23 or I are lying, there are even posts on other threads (including this thread) from actual Moroccans telling foreigners not to get married in Morocco after internet/holiday romances. Several of these posts come from a woman who married a Moroccan guy and is still with him and she says that her husband says that most are out to ensnare.

Be strong. You have saved yourself 10 years of misery and 1000s of pounds.
