Law 15.01 on the care (KAFALA) of abandoned children allows couples wishing to provide KAFALA for a child to apply to the guardianship judge.
This request must be accompanied by the following documents:
- Birth certificates of both spouses ;
- Legalized photocopies of both spouses' national identity cards;
- A photo of each spouse;
- Wage statements from both spouses;
- Anthropometric record (criminal record) of both spouses;
- A legalized copy of the marriage certificate ;
- Two medical certificates;
- The judgment declaring that the child in question is abandoned;
- An extract from the child's birth certificate.
Moroccan couples of the Muslim faith living abroad can also apply for a child's KAFALA, in which case an investigation will be commissioned by the Moroccan state and carried out by the state of residence to verify that the required legal conditions have been met.
