Hello,
I got married in the Seychelles 5 months ago and it needed almost immediately.
I am living in the uae and the certificate was never stamped here.
I am British and he was American.
How do we even begin to process a divorce?
I’ve read I need to own property in Seychelles ? Any advise welcome

Hi. Sorry to hear that the fire is over so soon. If you are residing in UAE - you can file for divorce in UAE court. But you would need to legalize the marriage certificate first in UAE; which is not a big deal. Cheers Peter

Thank you, how do I legalize it here first ? At the embassy or court?
