Well, I know people who did this. Divorce their wife, get a social allowance and a house for her, childsupport, etc. When she is living in Egypt there will be money left, and the house can be rented illegal to others...also extra income. Nice benefit: the Mr. is free to do what he wants in his European country, because MRs. is living in Egypt on a part of the allowance...

It really is 'eat your cake and have it, too'. You can't eat the cake without having it, but it would be strange to eat it and still have it. Most people get it wrong.
BTW, don't think Alchemist won't come here soon with the sound of cake. Posts: 13440 | Registered: Feb 2006

I like cake. Maybe I'll have cake for dinner. Maybe I'll feed my dog cake. Maybe I'll just eat the icing. Why can't I have cake all the time? Ana baheb el-cake. Posts: 1879 | From: Going to Graceland | Registered: Nov 2006

You can get divorced in your country and then get re-married in eygpt. If you are a women you have to wait 3 months before re-marring in eygpt. You will also have to get a free to marry cert. from your embassy. So bring a copy of your final divorce papers from the country where it was finalized. If you are american you can not get the free to marry cert from your embassy. They are still refusing to provide them.

Tootsie, americans wanting to marry in Egypt can now get an affidavit to marry.
Please see below:
Americans wishing to marry in Egypt must take the following steps in order to marry:
Step 1: Visit the American Citizen Services, U.S. Embassy
Address: 5, Tawfik Diab Street (formerly Latin America Street), Garden City, Cairo. Hours: Sunday through Thursday 8:00-11:00 a.m., except the last Tuesday of each month.
At American Citizen Services, you will sign a marriage affidavit that will be notarized by the U.S. Embassy. This affidavit includes your biographic data and your religion. Interfaith marriages are permitted by Egyptian law except in the case of a Muslim woman and a non-Muslim man. The affidavit also mentions that you are free to marry and that the Embassy has no objection to the marriage. Please bring the following: Your valid American passport Proof of termination of your last marriage, if you were married before. An original or certified copy of the last divorce decree or death certificate must be submitted. There is no need to get this document authenticated or translated into Arabic for the purpose of marriage. The authentication and translation by the Egyptian embassy or consulate in the U.S. may be required later for other purposes. Please note that if you are a female American citizen previously married, you may only remarry in Egypt at least 90 days after your divorce or 130 days after the death of your former spouse. If you are pregnant, you can only remarry after the birth of the baby. It is preferable that you bring your fiancé(e). If you are a female under the age of 21, you are required to either be accompanied by your father, a guardian, a person in loco parentis, or a written consent from any of the above. The consent should be in English and Arabic. It should be notarized by the Egyptian Embassy or an Egyptian consulate in the U.S. and by the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Egypt.
