Document background
An Affidavit of Marriage for Immigration is a crucial document required by Saudi Arabian immigration authorities to verify the legitimacy of a marriage when processing immigration applications. This document is particularly important in cases involving international marriages or when one spouse is seeking residency based on marital status. The affidavit must comply with both Saudi civil law and Sharia principles, containing detailed information about the marriage, the spouses' backgrounds, and supporting evidence of the relationship's authenticity. It serves as a formal declaration under oath, requiring proper notarization and potentially additional authentication from relevant authorities. The document is commonly used in visa applications, residency permit processes, and other immigration-related procedures within Saudi Arabia.
