This can be carried out through the Civil Registry Office\u00a0or through a court proceeding.\u00a0The joint petition of spouses is necessary for the divorce with a foreign citizen through the Civil Registry Office in the Republic of Armenia.If a foreign spouse cannot be present in person it is necessary to receive notarized consent to the divorce. In some cases, it must be apostilled and\/or legalized. In case if the foreign person does not agree with the implementation of divorce through the Civil Registry Office\u00a0he\/she should apply to the court of that State.

In this case, the parties may divorce in the Republic of Armenia or in the territory of a foreign country.\u00a0Divorce in the Republic of Armenia will be registered\u00a0in accordance with the domestic legislation of the Republic of Armenia.\u00a0According to the legislation of the Republic of Armenia foreign stateless persons enjoy the same rights and freedoms, perform the same obligations as citizens of the Republic of Armenia, except in cases established by The Constitution of the Republic of Armenia and statutes or international treaties of the Republic of Armenia. Moreover, termination of marital relations with a foreign citizen\/stateless person is executed on the same grounds as the divorce between citizens of the Republic of Armenia. This is filed at the Civil Registry Office\u00a0or through the court proceeding.\u00a0The divorce process through the Civil Registry Office\u00a0is made by virtue of a joint petition of spouses in the Republic of Armenia. If a foreign spouse is unable to be present in person for objective reasons, the other spouse must send an example of a petition for divorce to the spouse who is abroad. The foreign spouse must translate that petition into the national language of his\/her country, correctly fill it in, in some cases also to notarize and legalize the translated petition. Then he\/she should send that petition back to the Armenian spouse or to his\/her legally authorized proxy acting on his\/her behalf, which the Armenian spouse will translate it into Armenian, legalize and notarize it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It is also possible to divorce in court action in cases when:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">both spouses agree to divorce through the Civil Registry Office,\u00a0but nevertheless, they wish to divorce in court;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0only one of the spouses wishes to divorce in court.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If the divorce procedure with a foreign citizen\/stateless person is based on\u00a0the mutual agreement of the spouses, additionally it is necessary to resolve any issues regarding any existing children\u2019s maintenance, education and living arrangement\/expenses.\u00a0A prevalent method of a divorce with a foreign citizen\/stateless person in the Republic of Armenia is filing a suit for divorce by one of the spouses only. Suits for divorce may be filed at the place of current residence or permanent stay of the plaintiff, when:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">juveniles or minors live with him\/her;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">state of health does not allow leaving the place of residence of the defendant;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">spouses made an arrangement about a place of where to apply for divorce;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">there are some other valid reasons.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The plaintiff must present documents, confirming the inability of his\/her leaving the court at the defendant\u2019s place of residence. In case of divorce with a foreign citizen who doesn\u2019t have a place of permanent residence in the Republic of Armenia, the suit can be presented to the court at the location of his\/her property or at the last known place of his\/her residence or stay in the Republic of Armenia.\u00a0Suits for divorce with a person, who doesn\u2019t have a place of residence or whose place of residence is unknown, may be filed to the court at the place of location of defendant\u2019s property or at the last known place of his\/her residence or stay. In case if juveniles and\/or minor children live with the plaintiff, he\/she cannot leave for the defendant\u2019s place for health reasons, or for other valid reasons, the divorce action is brought by the plaintiff\u2019s place of residence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In accordance with the Civil Procedure Code of Armenia claim for a divorce may be submitted at the place of residence of both spouses in case of mutual agreement between them.\u00a0Legalization and apostille stamp issued on the marriage certificate is the official confirmation of its authenticity for the use in the territory of the Republic of Armenia. The procedure of legalization of a marriage entered into abroad demands significant investments of time and money. \u00a0The documents issued by the states, which are not parties to the 1961 Hague Convention, are subject to mandatory legalization (United Arabian Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Libya, many others). The Republic of Armenia ratified the convention and facilitated the procedure of authentication of documents issued\u00a0by foreign countries\u2019 authorities. Therefore recognition of documents among member countries takes place by stamping apostille stamp.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Legal support during the\u00a0divorce with a foreigner in Armenia<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When entering into marriage with a citizen of another country, very few people realize the huge quantity of questions and possible problems, which can arise when divorcing later on. Such kind of family relationship is always risky. It\u00a0is not even the legal complexity of such matters, though it is also essential, but rather the differences of nature, worldview, cultures, and possibilities of living together. Moreover, different attitudes to the nature of what marriage makes, many think about the divorce and its consequences. The divorce with a foreign spouse is not a very difficult procedure in itself. Any complications are usually generated by the consequences, which the divorce might cause in the context of the division of their joint property and issues\u00a0concerning their children if any.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>If you intend to divorce with a foreign citizen, it is required\u00a0to engage a qualified family\/divorce lawyer in order to:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">to avoid abuse of your rights, especially if you are abroad and your spouse insists on divorce proceeding by his\/her country\u2019s laws;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">to make the division of property less stressful and to minimize risks of other consequences;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">to avoid the pressure of the foreign spouse, with regards to the differences between the legislation of the Republic of Armenia and a foreign country.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>General rules of divorce with a foreigner in Armenia<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Any citizen of the Republic of Armenia has a right to claim a divorce with a foreign spouse in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Armenia. However, one should realize that\u00a0the country of the spouse may not recognize the divorce with a foreigner, registered in the Republic of Armenia. That is usually due to an absence of an international treaty between the said countries.\u00a0The divorce with a foreign citizen in the Republic of Armenia is allowed in the absence of latter under the condition of observance of his\/her\u00a0rights and he\/she must be informed about the future divorce proceeding. If provisions\u00a0of a foreign legislation on the legitimacy of divorce are observed, the divorce, registered\u00a0abroad, is recognized in the territory of the Republic of Armenia. The divorce in the Republic of Armenia is subject to provisions of RA legislation. Issues on a division of property are considered in accordance with the law of the country of plaintiff\u2019s location. Armenian courts, unless otherwise is provided by an international treaty, will only resolve the disputes about the property located in the Republic of Armenia. If the divorce of an Armenian citizen with a foreign citizen is linked to a dispute about children, the resolution of this question depends on a child\u2019s citizenship, country of residence (usual and permanent stay), existence\/absence of international treaty and other sensitivities. One should take note that approach of Armenian judicial system is quite different from the approach of the most countries, which usually take the side of their own citizens. As a rule, Armenian courts are entitled to consider disputes about children, if the latter are citizens of the Republic of Armenia.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>12.02.2015<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Foreigners and stateless persons in the territory of the Republic of Armenia have the same rights and freedoms and perform the same obligations as citizens of the Republic of Armenia.\u00a0Moreover, initiating divorce\u00a0proceeding\u00a0with a foreign citizen\u00a0will not be different from the divorce process with a citizen of the Republic of Armenia.
