Muslim marriage in Morocco

In Morocco, marriage is a matter for families as much as for couples. Maktoubna lets you get to know someone seriously and modestly before involving parents and the wali.

Getting married in Morocco: the steps

Marriage is governed by the 2004 Family Code (Moudawana): the legal age is 18 for both men and women.
The marriage contract is drawn up by two adouls, after authorisation from the family judge, based on a file (ID, birth certificates, medical certificates, etc.).
An adult woman may conclude her own marriage or delegate this right to her father or a relative, who then acts as her wali.
Moroccans living abroad may marry under local law and then have the marriage registered with the consulate.

General information for guidance only. Check with the town hall, court or relevant consulate before taking any steps.

From the first card to the proposal

Introduce yourself honestly
Your religious practice, your life plans, what you hope for in a spouse. Ten minutes is enough.
Browse compatible profiles
Right if you are interested, left if not. You only see adults of the opposite sex whose e-mail has been verified.
Talk once interest is mutual
A conversation opens only when both of you are interested. You alone decide when your photos become visible.
Bring in the families
Share your wali’s contact details in one tap and carry on the proper way.

Built for marriage, not for entertainment

Modesty first

Your photos stay blurred until you reveal them to a match. Blurring happens on our servers, so nobody can get around it.

The wali has a place

Add your wali and share his contact details in the conversation once things become serious.

Clear intentions

Every profile states its practice, its plans and when the person hopes to marry. You know who you are talking to.

A safe setting

Report or block in two taps. Every report is reviewed by a person, and disrespectful accounts are removed.
