1. Official Marriage Registration at the Ministry of Justice
We accompany the spouses and handle all legal coordination to write and register marriage contracts for Egyptians and foreigners or foreign couples at the Ministry of Justice headquarters in Lazoughly Square, Cairo. We ensure the procedure is quick, seamless, and fully compliant with family status laws.
Our registration service includes:
- Pre-audit of all birth certificates and civil documentation.
- Providing certified translators if a party does not speak Arabic fluently.
- Handling Ministry scheduling to complete the procedure in just a few hours.
2. Spouse Residency & Visas in Egypt
A valid non-tourist residency stamp on the foreigner's passport is a strict mandatory prerequisite demanded by the Ministry of Justice before registering any marriage contract.
Attorney Mahmoud Shams' office simplifies this procedure by:
- Accompanying the foreign client to the Abbassia Passport & Immigration department.
- Quickly obtaining the mandatory pre-marriage temporary residency.
- Following up on long-term renewable 5-year spouse residency visas after contract registration.
3. Certified Translation & Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) Legalization
To be recognized internationally and registered at the foreign spouse's home embassy, the Egyptian marriage contract must be officially translated and certified by the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).
We provide a complete turnkey solution:
- Certified translations from Arabic to English, French, German, and other major languages.
- Stamping the translated documents at MOFA offices.
- Providing a fully attested, internationally recognized marriage certificate.
