Hi everyone! I am an English woman marrying a Moroccan man in Morocco. I have seen the list of documents l need but l have lost my birth certificate and my decree nisi. If l order copies of these will it be acceptable?

Thanks in advance!

I don't know for sure. However, in the USA, there is a TV show called "90 day fiance". There was a lady from Florida who went to Morocco to marry a Moroccan man. She had all of her original documents except for one of them which was just a copy. She was not allowed  to marry him because one of her documents was "just a copy". Perhaps it would be best if you contacted an immigration lawyer to get the best advice on this matter?

Thanks. I have called and emailed the Moroccan embassy here as they would know but they haven't picked up or replied to my email. Very frustrated!
