Divorce in Egypt when one spouse is a foreigner

A confidential consultation and a clear route for ending a marriage where one spouse is foreign: common papers, steps, and the effect on residency.

Was dazugehört

Ending a marriage between two countries raises questions one country’s rules don’t answer alone: which procedure applies, whether you can act from abroad, and what happens to residency and documents afterwards. We start with a confidential session, find the right route and the competent authority, and follow the procedure until the final document is issued.

Diese Leistung ist für Sie, wenn

• Your marriage was registered in Egypt and one spouse is a foreign national
• You need to document or formally prove a divorce in Egypt
• You hold a divorce judgment or document issued outside Egypt and need to use it here

Üblicherweise verlangte Unterlagen

• The registered marriage contract or an official copy
• Passport of the foreign spouse and national ID of the Egyptian spouse
• Children’s birth certificates, if any
• Any divorce judgment or document issued outside Egypt, translated and legalised

This list is a guide. Papers vary by nationality, religion and the country that issued your documents, and authorities can change them. We give you your final list after reviewing your papers.
