Residency in Algeria

Welshgirl23
#1
I am married to a algerian, we married in tunisia and we have a marriage certificate also algerian family book.
I was given residency for 3 months. I returned from the UK on the date requested to be told police in Algie capital is refusing to give me residency because I was not married in Algeria. This is absolutely disgraceful given the fact that I am married legally to my Algerian husband for 4 years been basically living here and adding to the algerian economy.聽
My question is have anyone else been treated like this ?
What do they want us to do divorce and remarry in Algeria. My guess they would refuse us to marry here because they will find some excuse.聽 I just can't get my head around it. If we was not legally married I could understand..

You should apply for marriage visa at the Algerian embassy in London (overseas). you should be able to get at least one year multi-entry visa. Socialist countries like Algeria, Vietnam, China... married expats to locals cannot apply for residency within the country based on your marriage status to a local. once your marriage visa (don't overstay it), you could try extending it at the immigration office in Algiers , if they refuse you can try any Algerian embassy in neighboring countries, Tunisia or Morocco. good luck:)
