New Personal Status Law in U.A.E

The new Personal Status Law in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), which came into effect on February 1, 2023, is a landmark piece of legislation that introduces several significant changes to the way that personal status matters are dealt with in the country. 

The law applies to all non-Muslim residents of the UAE, and it covers a wide range of issues, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and inheritance. One of the most significant changes introduced by the law is the recognition of civil marriage. Under the previous law, non-Muslim couples could only get married in a religious ceremony, but the new law now allows them to get married in a civil ceremony before a judge.
