Divorce for Romanians living abroad

For Romanians who live abroad, divorcing in Romania is often simpler, quicker and less expensive.

The length and cost of litigation vary greatly from country to country, and Romania still has a relatively quick and inexpensive divorce procedure.

Many people believe they can only divorce in the country where they live or where they married. That is not the case. EU law contains rules and criteria under which spouses can choose the country in which to divorce, which in many cases can mean the difference between short and long proceedings.

For Romanians living abroad, divorcing in Romania is often the simplest option.

Alina Szilaghi can help you with the whole procedure, and there are solutions that avoid the spouses having to travel to Romania. Where the presence of at least one spouse in court is required, we prepare all the documents in advance and take all the procedural steps needed, so that your visit is as short as possible.
