Everything in one team, from documents, ceremony and certificate to learning and celebration. Simple or full-scale, caring for couples since 2008.
A proper, certified ceremony during a short stay — we prepare everything before you land, and an officer checks your documents at your hotel.
A friendly 3-day course at ARAYA House — learn about Islam, complete your Shahada with certificates, in a safe space for both families. No coercion, ever.
Ceremony plus reception for 60+ guests: certified halal venue and catering, décor, MC and photography — organized end to end.
A simple, private ceremony under Islamic principles, focused on complete rituals and proper certification.
Full ceremony and warm reception under the Nikah Guardian Thailand guidelines.
A private 3-day course at ARAYA House (INCC) — gradual, family-friendly, respectful of your background.
The ceremony itself takes about 30 minutes — but honest planning takes longer. Here is what really happens:
Talk to a specialist on WhatsApp, pick the service that fits, pay the deposit — we tell you exactly which documents to prepare.
Send scans for the Shariah Board to review online; once approved, choose your Nikah date — meanwhile we arrange the officiant, witnesses and venue.
Tell us your Bangkok accommodation and we confirm the final schedule — just bring the original documents on ceremony day.
The ceremony takes about 30 minutes — then enjoy halal-friendly Thailand while documents from the relevant authorities are prepared in about 3 working days. We recommend planning to stay around 10 days.
The complete process, from your first message to us to the certificate in your hand — step 8 only applies if you are converting to Islam.
Since 2008, ARAYA has cared for cross-cultural Islamic marriages in Thailand as a certified social enterprise. We work hand in hand with religious organizations, law firms, attractions and hotels so that every family visiting Thailand has a safe, welcoming experience — under our Nikah Guardian Thailand framework, which screens, educates and protects women and children in every cross-cultural marriage, with no coercion, ever.
We intend that ARAYA's activities will aim to assist humanity in living together peacefully and harmoniously, even with religious differences.
This is the most important decision for your Nikah in Thailand. We advise honestly which type fits your country and situation.
Thank you very much for the beautiful bride and groom dresses. Thank you for good service for us. You will not be disappointed that you choose to use the service with Araya Nikah Planner.
Our respondents generally love Araya because of its very professional yet friendly team — planners gave excellent advice and were always ready to answer any inquiry.
You don't need to know anything about Islam before you arrive — over three gentle days we walk together, in a private space with no judgment and no pressure. Both families are welcome to sit and learn beside you, and every question is a good question — so your wedding day, your prayers, and your new family life can begin with warmth and confidence.
Learning comes with no strings attached — finishing the course never obliges you to convert or to marry. Every decision is yours, and under ARAYA's consent policy your yes must always be confirmed by you personally, in private — family or a wali may support you, but can never speak for you.
Two sister projects extend your journey — travel Thailand comfortably as a Muslim, and keep learning at your own pace.
Curated routes across Thailand with halal food and prayer planning built into every itinerary — perfect for your honeymoon days after the Nikah. Context, not judgement.
Online courses for new Muslims and curious partners — study from anywhere before or after your ceremony, with in-system certificates.
The ceremony takes about 30 minutes, but set aside a full day for the process. Documents need about 1 month of preparation before you travel — the document steps after the ceremony take around 3 working days, so we recommend planning to stay around 10 days.
The legal-route certificate is a nikah certificate from a state-recognized Islamic authority, issued within Thailand\'s legal framework — separate from Thai civil marriage registration at a district office (amphur). It can be legalized at the Thai Consulate; however, acceptance is always at the discretion of each destination country — ARAYA has no authority over legal recognition in any other country, and you must consult the authority where you plan to use the document yourself. The religious-only certificate has no legal effect. Tell us your nationality and we'll advise honestly which fits — some countries (Bahrain, UAE, Maldives, Libya, Kuwait) also require an embassy permission letter.
The Nikah requires both partners to be Muslim with official proof. If your partner is ready, they can study and convert free of charge at mosques in Thailand, or take ARAYA's private 3-day course and receive both certificates with us.
We are a certified Social Enterprise working with state-recognized religious institutions in Thailand, publicly reviewed since 2008, with a strict No Secret Nikah policy — every marriage we arrange is announced publicly on our social media.
By cash, or Visa / MasterCard through Facebook Metapay after your consultation and package confirmation. A refund policy applies — ask us for the conditions in detail.
You are warmly welcome — we have cared for many couples from all schools of thought. ARAYA is a Sunni organization (Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah), and all services are provided under Sunni principles and Thai legal frameworks.
Tell us your nationality, religion and timeline. Our specialists will tell you exactly which documents and certificate type you need.
