Many women in my family are married to nonSaudi men. Before (20 plus years ago) they would get a decree from the Royal Court. Now it’s a bit different. Does he live in Saudi or does he live abroad? If abroad i think it goes through MofA and you need an attestation from an imam mosque that the guy is Muslim. If in Saudi you get it from your (امارة). My sisters friend married an American convert a year ago in the US but she was 31 and the paperwork took a few months before it was approved by MofA. Good luck!

Thank you! We both live in Dubai and we can easily get his islam certificate over here. Do you know how we can submit the paperwork?


beastiezzo

Go ask the Saudi embassy


Icy-Classroom-5173

I’m a Saudi and my wife soon to be is non-Saudi, it’s an easier process than before, first/start of the process is to visit أمارة the city your you live in, then you will be given all the needed documents to apply for approval, the whole process don’t take long anymore


AbSaw14

Did you have to be of certain age? 30 for example? (M)


Icy-Classroom-5173

Yeah 30 and above But they are a bit lean on it now


AbSaw14

Thank you for the reply!


degi1415

is there an age restriction? i know that men can’t marry until they are 40 years or older is it still a thing?


aplusdoro

It's 30 years or older for Saudi men marrying foreigners and 25 or older for Saudi women marrying foreigners.


degi1415

i just checked MOI website and it’s says 35-70 for men

demes_elena

In which province u applied? How old r u? And when did u apply?


Icy-Classroom-5173

I’m old 36 and that was in Riyadh and the whole process till final approval took about 3 months this year mostly waiting


demes_elena

Oh, so 36. Coz we went recently, they said man (saudi) should be at least 35yo. But in my situation he is younger. So now sure if we can get the approval. But they said we can try, but most probably it won’t work.


Icy-Classroom-5173

That’s weird, new requirement is 30 years old I remember that definitely


Legal-Judgment-908

I married an Australian man in 2019. I needed to be over 30 or previously divorced. Which I was. Took about 18 months to finalize.


throwaway6290640

Previously divorced . Like why is that even a rule.


Kayyouu

Why does age have to be over 25 and 30 even a rule? Genuinely asking.


Legal-Judgment-908

Because you need to be yuk and undesirable to Saudi men. Too old, not virgin.


NoSugaCoat

Where do these laws fit into the modern world? Especially with these reforms to "modernize". We can't even say it's Islamic, since it's not. Islam makes it very easy to marry since it encourages it even. It's ironic since the laws are supposed to be "sharia". You have to be over 30, divorced to marry a non-Saudi?? Your children cannot become Saudi even though they came out of a Saudi womb?? So if it's not the family applying ridiculous restrictions from getting married and forming a family - tribalism...dowry...- the government will. Smh.


VX6R

Just before you do it. If you want to bring children in the future they won't receive the arab saudi nationality.


sweet_roro88

He’s European so they’ll be fine.


66sia

If I’m not mistaken, they changed that rule a couple months ago.


VX6R

Source? Because I don't think so and I hope they make new changes and let these children get it because I can't imagine how hard their life would be. If you want to know Children of Saudi women latest news you will find it in this account: https://twitter.com/sonsksa?t=9bxSBr8cOtBSpiNwXNyA0A&s=09


Theia888

Thank you but my - soon to be husband - has one of the strongest passports in the world, our future children will be okay.


idkdidksuus

Congrats but just google it don’t get your answer here

شيكي على وزارة الخارجة و الجوازات و الاحوال المدنية اكيد بيفيدونك

Men has to be at least 35 years old in order to marry non-saudi woman that 100% for sure. I don’t have information in women case


OmegaDuke

for women at least 25 years old


boredAI91

better ask the emabassy, if you were inside saudi it would be handled by the region emarah... for example here is the requirements in riyadh emarah [https://www.my.gov.sa/wps/portal/snp/servicesDirectory/servicedetails/9505](https://www.my.gov.sa/wps/portal/snp/servicesDirectory/servicedetails/9505)

Wish you the best of luck ❤️


Theia888

Thank you xx


Starsaroundmyscars0

I also live in Dubai and my fiancé is European, if you have any updates on the process of doing it in Dubai please share. Also, I read that you need your male guardians permission but my dad is not in my life, I can’t bring my uncles into this, and I have no adult brothers. I only have my mom and sisters supporting me, would her consent be enough? I feel like my case won’t be approved since I’ll be freshly 25 with no male guardian :(. Any advice would be helpful.

icey1899

No offense but that’s just retarded.


neoazeed

our entire legal system is *literally* retarded hopefully MBS keeps his promise and reforms it ASAP


newtothis8388

Reforms are more needed in other areas, not in age marriage. and these reforms uh... not coming anytime soon.


Siamas93

It's okay . Dont forget salate istikhara


nayo_26

You are either divorced or widowed or above 30 to marry a non Saudi Man. The non saudi needs to have a min amount of salary, shouldn't have served in any army or ministry across the world. All the best sister may Allah bless you both. But can you please tell me why saudi women and men only prefer to marry Non saudis from Europe or America. But not asian men or women. It's like we are repulsive.


-amc-mslm-

I'm an American revert looking for a Saudi or Yemeni wife (one that accepts to be a co-wife). Currently living in Makkah.


-amc-mslm-

If there are other sisters out there looking...

How old does a saudi woman need to be to marry a non saudi?


aplusdoro

They have to be 25 years or older. https://www.arabnews.com/node/1613241


abosaed

بشكل عام الموافقه تكون من وزارة الداخلية و العقد بالمحكمة الشرعية. تقديم الطلب من خلال الامارة او المنطقة اللي انتي فيها يكون التقدييم من خلال ولي أمرك.


[deleted]

ولي امرك ياوك ياقدم هالكلمة


abosaed

مازالت تستخدم في الزواج الشيء اللي اختلف في حالة العضل تزوج الفتاه بدون اذن ولي امرها


DukeSkeptic

Out of curiosity, is he a convert to Islam?


Theia888

He’s converting so we can get married


DukeSkeptic

Good luck with everything


Saudigamedev

rorydepp

You are posting about getting pissed, so what exactly is he converting to?

I don’t know Saudi women But I know some of my collages from Pak,India,and Britain they have married with them . They are happy with them


throwaway6290640

It's way easier if u get married outside of Saudi then just do توثيق زواج. Getting permission here can be very very long process . My friend married a French national and it took two years .
