Today, quite a few couples, especially young couples, undergo such a procedure as divorce. Moreover, many of them go through this “blindly”, not knowing the laws at all, and as a result they make a large number of mistakes.
Often it seems to young people that having scattered in different directions, they will be able to erase all unpleasant years from memory, but then, after some time, they realize that if they do not go through all the stages of the divorce process on time, in particular, not having received a divorce certificate, they will again have to return to the past, which they so wanted to forget. Of course, almost everything in this life is not critical and correctable, but in contact with what causes only bitterness, an indelible mark remains on the soul.
Many people mistakenly believe that their marriage is considered legally terminated from the moment the judicial decision on divorce enters into force. However, this is not so: according to the law, a divorce occurs from the moment when a corresponding entry is made in the registry office and the parties receive a divorce certificate. Until then, their family union continued to exist.
The certificate of divorce is usually issued after the trial, in the registry office. Both ex-spouses must receive it, which is recorded in the registration book. In the same place changes are made to this document or in case of its loss a new one is issued.
If both parties agree to break up and they do not have children in common, they are bred there, and they immediately issue a divorce certificate, a sample of which is available in each registry office.
If one of the parties is against the divorce, then the divorce must take place in court. Marriages between husband and wife with minor children are also terminated there.
As a rule, many divorced people believe that they will not need a certificate of divorce , and therefore they do not receive it. But situations arise in life when you simply cannot do without it. For example, without a divorce document, none of the former spouses can enter into an official new marriage, you may need it when you get housing, when you divide an apartment, when you move to another country, etc.
A certificate of divorce can be obtained by presenting a court decision, a statement and a receipt on payment of state duty, the details and amount of which must be clarified in the Sberbank branch. Each of the parties pays for its copy separately.
Sometimes after a trial, one of the spouses does not register their divorce at the registry office, unlike the other. And this means that he does not have the right to join a new union until he himself receives a certificate of divorce.
When divorce is filed at the registry office, the authority in which the acts of civil status are registered checks the fact of issuing a divorce certificate to one of the spouses. And if it has already been issued to one of the spouses, then, supplementing the act of recording with the missing information, the second spouse will also be given a similar document with the same date as the first spouse. At the same time, there is no specific deadline for registration of divorce.
Sometimes in certain situations, a person needs a second certificate. If he lives in the same city where he divorced, then there will be no problems. You just need to write a statement in the same registry office where the divorce registration was made, and present a receipt for the payment of the fee.
There are cases when a divorce between spouses is registered abroad due to the fact that one of them is a citizen of the Russian Federation, and the other is a citizen of some other state. In such cases, a foreign divorce certificate is issued, the translation of which can be done subsequently in specialized translation agencies.
