Time for civil wedding in qatar

A civil wedding is not permitted in Qatar; consider UAE for civil marriage.

In Qatar, civil weddings are not allowed. However, residents can travel to the UAE, specifically Dubai or Abu Dhabi, where civil marriages are legally recognized under the “Federal Decree Law No. 41 of 2022 on Civil Personal Status for Non-Muslims.” This law allows non-Muslim residents the option to marry according to their home country’s laws or choose alternative personal status laws in effect in the UAE. The process is straightforward and typically takes only 24 hours in Dubai. Couples must meet certain requirements, including being at least 18 years old and not being closely related. For more details on legal procedures and documentation needed, refer to the Ministry of Justice or Dubai Courts’ official websites.
