Check if you can get a divorce
You can get divorced in England or Wales if all of the following are true:
- you've been married for over a year
- your relationship has permanently broken down
- your marriage is legally recognised in the UK (including same-sex marriage)
Before you apply for divorce
You must decide whether you want to make a joint application with your husband or wife or whether you want to apply on your own.
It normally takes at least 7 months to get a divorce. This is the same for joint and sole applications.
Making a joint application with your husband or wife
You can make a joint application if both of the following apply:
- you both agree that you should get a divorce
- you're not at risk of domestic abuse
You will need to decide if you want to apply online or by post. Your husband or wife needs to use the same application method.
You'll both have to separately confirm that you want to continue with the divorce application at each stage of the process.
Applying for a divorce on your own
Make a sole application if either of the following applies:
- your husband or wife does not agree you should get a divorce
- you do not think your husband or wife will cooperate or respond to notifications from the court
You will need to confirm you want to continue with the divorce application at each stage of the process.
How long does the divorce process take?
The duration of the divorce process depends on various factors, such as the complexity of the case, whether it's contested or uncontested, and the caseload of the court. On average, it can take 6-12 months or more.
