IS marriage certificate necessary to take a flat on rent in Abu Dhabi?

Question

Hi, I am planning to get married in 2 months. To bring my spouse here in Abu Dhabi i was planning to take up a flat on rent. Is marriage certificate necessary to sign up a flat lease in Abu Dhabi??

Answer 1

This doesn't answer your question, but.. I would recommend that you do take your marriage certificate or at least a copy with you. The reason being that you will need it should you decide to have children whilst in Abu Dhabi.  Antenatal/Maternity care is only available on proof of marriage.  

Answer 2

as far as i know its not but its a few years since i lived there.  i presume ur male. the only prob u may find is if the flat u choose does not allow bachelors u may be asked to prove ur not a bachelor by showing yr certificate.    

Answer 3

Definately Yes !     I have just renewed my tenancy and I had to produce the certificate.
