    there  must be documentation proving this. If the bride’s father cannot be

    passport  must also be included to verify his signature.

    non-Muslim,  a certificate of no impediment (or no objection) from the bride’s
    embassy or  consulate is required.

  • If the bride is divorced or widowed, proof will be
      required.

      issued outside the UAE, including birth and death certificates and divorce
      decree must be translated into Arabic by a legal translator (i.e. approved by
      the Court).
