Dear Client,

Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will assist you in this matter.

Yes, a naturalized Emirati woman can marry a foreign Muslim man in the UAE.

Citizenship rules may allow their children to obtain UAE citizenship through the father, but consult the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) for detailed guidance.

For any further legal assistance, you can WhatsApp us. We have an extensive team of knowledgeable and experienced lawyers to provide the legal assistance you need.

We will be happy to help you.

Thanks & Regards,

ABDUL WAHIED

Dear Questioner,

She can marry any Muslim, regardless of his nationality.

As for the second question, it is not clear, and there is no explicit law regarding that.

She can marry.

Kids will not be UAE citizens.

Dear Questioner,

There are some procedures in this kind of marriage which is difficult to explain here.

It is better if we discuss this in a legal consultation session for a charge.
