Marriage After Divorce
What divorced people usually need before getting married again.
Yes, you can get married after divorce, but the earlier marriage must be legally ended before the new marriage can happen.
What you usually need
You will usually need:
- your final divorce order, or
- equivalent proof if the divorce was overseas
If the document is not in English, you will usually also need an official translation.
Can you book before the divorce is final?
You can often start the process and prepare the NOIM, but the marriage itself cannot happen until the earlier marriage has legally ended.
