Can proxy marriage divorce take place in the UK

Post by questu65 » Tue Sep 04, 2018 10:48 pm

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if I can have my proxy marriage divorce take place in the UK courts or do I have to return to the country where the proxy marriage took place in the first place?

Thanks

Not really an immigration question. You may be better off asking that question in a forum dedicated to divorce proceedings or consulting your local Citizen Advice Bureau.

Generally, if the marriage is recognised in the UK AND at least one partner is domiciled in the UK, then you can get divorced in the UK. However, there are differences in rules and procedure between Scotland, Northern Ireland and England & Wales in this matter. So, best to check with your CAB, as advised above.
