I didn't proclaim my marriage to the Moroccan Consulate General w/in three months after my marriage....? |
Travel Info Actually, we never did it...my husband said we didn't need to. I don't believe him...anybody get married in the US and need to do this before going to Morocco? Travel Tips It's quicker to regularize the marital situation at Moroccan General Consulate than in Morocco, you 'll waste too much time over there! Others I am not sure what all of your information is, but if you are a US citizen and your husband is moroccan, you need to check on things, and this is just speculation, you will need to confirm these details. Many Muslim countries ask for marriage decrees, because if you go there and you are married to a citizen of that country, that can make you a citizen of that country by marriage and you may not be able to leave. Like I said, I dont know what all of your issues are, but you need all of the facts before you go there. You will need permission from a male family member (husband) in order to leave the country. Watch the Sally Fields movie "Not without my daughter". Fez, my husband and I did not proclaim our marriage to the Moroccan embassy or consulate in USA after marrying there. Once we moved here we filed for my residency and handed everything in then. We did not have any problems. I personally think whether one has a problem or not just depends on where you apply, who is working that day and how they want to deal with you :( I have a friend who applied days after me and really got the run around. They wouldn't accept her marriage license from Canada though it was both a legal and Islamic marriage. My husband and I never even turned in our civil marriage certificate only are Islamic certificate which is not a legal document and that was sufficient. I think the woman we dealt with liked me but didn't like the Canadian girl, lol. Dear Design girl. A woman in Morocco does not need permission from her husband to leave the country. And contrary to your saying that in most Muslim nations a woman automatically becomes a citizen of that country if she marries a man from that country you are WRONG. The facts are that most Muslim nations do not do this including Morocco. As a matter of fact many Muslim nations do not allow naturalization at all. Until recently in Morocco one had to petition directly to the king to even attempt it and extremely rare it was. It is still quite difficult. Try READING facts instead of watching Hollywood productions. I don't think it's necessary, but your husband will need to get a "hala medaniyah" (pardon my transliteration!) if you want to live in Morocco, so you might want to get one. That's the family record book that every married Moroccan man needs to have (who knows why, bureaucracy is antiquated here!) - my husband is in the process of getting his right now - it will help in the future, say, if he needs something from the Moroccan Consulate in the States, like a new birth certificate or proof of marriage. ***Designgirl, like Sarah T said, it's nearly impossible for a foreigner to become a Moroccan citizen. I asked, and was told that my husband and I would need to have been married for ten years before I could even apply, and then, there's still no guarantee. Even worse, if a Moroccan woman has children with a non-Moroccan (even if he's Muslim) man, up until recently, her kids wouldn't even be Moroccan! So no chance of getting held hostage here (though it's true that Iran has that law, that movie is somewhat fabricated) i dont tell any thing about this ask to u`r husband direct this wright my id |
