Since the 1970s, with the influx of oil wealth, the life of the UAE people has undergone tremendous changes, with luxurious wedding ceremonies and women demanding bride price prevailing. According to the investigation of relevant departments in the United Arab Emirates, the cost of holding a middle-class wedding is usually around $654.38 million.

Due to the high price of domestic brides, more and more UAE men turn their eyes to foreign countries and seek foreign brides. The UAE government is deeply disturbed by this, so it strongly advocates simplifying marriage and "localizing" the bride. 1992, UAE Marriage Foundation was established. The Foundation provides financial assistance to every UAE man who marries his own girl, and helps UAE men marry their own girl by economic means.

Since the establishment of the UAE Marriage Foundation, at least 50,000 newlyweds have received financial support. The foundation also sponsored a group wedding banquet to further reduce the financial burden of UAE men marrying local brides.

Of course, not everyone can get the "national marriage allowance" casually. The UAE Marriage Foundation stipulated in 20 10 that the maximum monthly income of "national marriage allowance" applicants is 16000 dirhams (about RMB 30,000).
