Copies of Marriage Certificate in Cairo

[Smelserjl 137]

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how to obtain additional marriage certificates in Cairo? My husband and I each received one copy at the Ministry of Justice when we got married, but how do we obtain additional ones for the NVC process? And does anyone know if--after translated and certified by MoJ--we need to have the copies certified again at the Embassy, even though we already have a copy certified (the one I want to keep and not submit)? Do we receive the original back at any point?

Thanks for your help.

tell your husband to go to any "seggell madany" they should have your marriage certificate scanned in the system and ready for extra copy printing after about 30 days from marriage .. the printable ones will look different though .. not as big in size and more colored .. still in Arabic though

When it comes to sending the certificate to the US for visa processing .. it needs to be translated to English from authorized translators .. you will find the list of such translators in us embassy in cairo website ..

Finally some lawyers claim that such printed copies still need stamps from Ministry of foreign affairs .. others claim not .. not about that

hope that helped

I will advise you that you do receive the original marriage contract and translation after a successful interview. It takes 6-8 weeks to get the documents back, but you will.
