How long it will take for civil wedding in qatar

A civil wedding is not permitted in Qatar; residents can marry in Dubai.

In Qatar, a civil wedding is not allowed. However, Qatari residents can travel to the UAE, specifically Dubai, to conduct a civil marriage without needing a visa. The UAE’s family law for non-Muslims, governed by ‘Federal Decree Law No. 41 of 2022 on Civil Personal Status for Non-Muslims,’ outlines the procedures and requirements for marriage. This law allows couples to choose between their home country’s laws or the provisions set forth in the UAE. The process in Dubai typically takes only 24 hours once all documents are submitted.

Key points for getting married in Dubai:
– Both parties must be at least 18 years old.
– Valid identification (passport or Emirates ID) is required.
– Proof of dissolution of previous marriages if applicable.
– Consent from both parties is necessary.

For further details, refer to the Ministry of Justice and Dubai Courts.
