Legal overview
Abu Dhabi’s Civil Family Court offers no-fault divorce for cases within its jurisdiction. Check the applicable civil regime, residence or marriage connection, and the parties’ personal status. A passport alone does not determine the applicable law.
Practical steps
Prepare the marriage certificate and status documents. Financial orders and arrangements for children may require separate requests and evidence. Use the court’s official eligibility guidance and forms.
Official sources
General legal information. Individual cases require review of the documents and applicable law.
