Hi I was wondering if anyone could help.. Me an my boyfriend are moving to UAE at the end of this year.. Do you have to be married to live together? Can you live together without being married in a western compound or western area of Dubai or Abu Dhabi?

hi, good luck for both of you in moving to UAE, its not really a problem to be not married, but its more safe, you can live together without any problems if you are looking to live in a western area, but as i said earlier, its more secure if you are married and abide with the country's laws as a Muslim country.
