Frequently asked questions
How do you register in Morocco a marriage celebrated abroad?
Article 14 of the Family Code allows Moroccans living abroad to marry according to local administrative formalities, provided the substantive conditions of the Code are met, in particular the presence of two Muslim witnesses. Article 15 then requires a copy of the marriage certificate to be filed, within three months, with the Moroccan consular services or, failing that, with the Ministry of Justice. If difficulties arise, an action for recognition of the marriage may be considered.
How can you manage an estate or a property in Morocco from abroad?
You can give a power of attorney to a trusted person or instruct a lawyer for court proceedings. The firm can check the status of the property at the land registry, coordinate the drawing up of the certificate of inheritance and take action against an unlawful occupant. Each step is reported to you in writing so that you keep a clear record of the case.
