Dubai, UAE

What are the requirements for the Wali of a bride to grant a PoA to another person?

Hello,

I would like to know if, for a marriage in Dubai, it is possible for the bride's Wali to give authorization by proxy to another person if the Wali cannot be present.

What specific documents are required to establish this proxy authorization validly in the UAE, and what steps are necessary to ensure compliance with local procedures?

The Wali must issue a proxy authorization (also known as a Wakala) permitting another individual to act on his behalf for the marriage contract.

This proxy document must clearly state that the person has been authorized to act as the Wali for the bride in her marriage.

The Wali should create a formal, notarized document in his home country, if he is not in the UAE, outlining the proxy authorization.

This document should specifically grant permission for the representative to act as the Wali in the marriage process, the Wakala must be attested by relevant authorities.

Documentation proving the relationship between the Wali and the bride (such as a family book or other official records).

Thank you for the detailed information regarding the proxy authorization. I would like to ask where exactly I can obtain the required documents for this process.

Additionally, can my brother act as the Wali and issue the proxy authorization since my father opposes this?

Are there specific requirements or steps that we need to follow?

In Islamic marriage law, if the father opposes the marriage without valid grounds, a close male relative, like a brother, can sometimes act as the Wali provided the court grants permission.

A Wakala (proxy authorization) can be obtained from the Notary Public at the local court or through authorized notary offices.

Je vous explique brièvement il s'oppose car nous ne sommes pas de la même origine l'un est tunisien l'autre algérien j'ai pu voir que religieusement parlant la tutelle du père sait s'il acceptait pas pour ce genre de motif. tous le reste de la famille est d'accord sauf lui.

Sorry I forgot to answer in English I explain to you briefly he opposes because we are not of the same origin one is Tunisian the other Algerian I could see that religiously speaking the father's guardianship knows if he did not accept for this kind of reason. all the rest of the family agrees except him.
