An Affordable Option for International Couples Seeking Divorce

All couples facing divorce must deal with the expenses the process involves, but for international couples, divorce is even more costly. If you're living abroad, either you or your spouse will need to travel to another country to manage divorce proceedings. It's likely you'll need to travel multiple times over the course of several months or even years trying to legally dissolve your marriage.

In addition to legal fees for your attorneys, travel costs can be a major financial strain on international couples who want to divorce. It's no wonder so many opt to stay married, even after living separate lives for years.

In cases where spouses can't agree on anything to do with their divorce, international couples may have no alternative to a long and grueling ordeal in the court system. Yet in cases where both spouses agree that legal divorce is their best recourse, there's an affordable option international couples can pursue. It's called an overseas or offshore divorce, and it's a relatively inexpensive way to legally dissolve a marriage by mutual consent.

An offshore divorce usually involves only one spouse traveling to a foreign country to handle court proceedings involved in the divorce. This one-time trip to a country such as Guam, Haiti or the Dominican Republic will be much less costly than repeated flights back and forth between your country of residence and your spouse's. In some cases, you only need to stay in the country where you'll obtain your divorce for a few days. Offshore divorces can cost between $1,500 and approximately $5,000, and in most cases, this includes air travel and accommodations.

Even if you and your spouse aren't in agreement about child custody issues or financial settlements, you can still regain legal single status through an offshore divorce. Subsequently, local courts in one or another of your countries of residence will settle economic and child custody matters. In the meantime, you'll be able to file taxes independently, start a business or even remarry as a single individual.

You can research offshore divorces online to find out more about how offshore divorces can benefit international couples. In your research, you'll discover that in addition to cost savings, you'll also enjoy the benefit of speed with an offshore divorce. There's no need to spend thousands and thousands of dollars and take years to settle your divorce. An offshore international divorce is a terrific option for couples that want their marriage dissolved quickly, easily and with minimal expense.
