Divorce abroad: what you need to know
The divorce procedure abroad has its own peculiarities, which depend on the legislation of the host country, as well as on the family status of the spouses (presence of joint children, division of property, etc.).
Why can the divorce procedure be different abroad?
- Different laws: Each country has its own laws regarding marriage and its dissolution. The terms, procedures and grounds for divorce can vary significantly.
- Language barriers: Not knowing the language of the host country can make it difficult to understand legal nuances and communicate with lawyers and judicial authorities.
- Distance: Geographical distance from Ukraine can make it difficult to collect necessary documents and participate in court hearings.

- Contact a lawyer: The best solution would be to contact a lawyer who specializes in family law.
- Collect the necessary documents: Usually, the following documents are required for divorce:
- Marriage certificate;
- Passports of both spouses;
- Other documents that may be required depending on the specific situation (for example, evidence of grounds for divorce, property division agreement, etc.).
- Go through the court procedure: Divorce usually takes place in court. The duration of the process depends on the complexity of the case and the legislation of the country. In such cases, the best solution would be to have a representative.
- Legalization of documents: After receiving a court decision on divorce, it is necessary to legalize this document for further use in Ukraine.
What is important to consider?
- Issues related to children and property: If the spouses have joint children or property, it is necessary to resolve the issue of their maintenance and division of property.
