Getting married in Europe
2 months ago
I was married in India in 2019 and it lasted only for a month and half and divorced after a year because I had to wait for one year to get divorced. In between this one year I had gone to Europe and I hadn’t changed the marital status anywhere to married or divorced even in passport because everything happened within one month of getting married. I got divorced in 2020 and now I plan to get married in Europe, since I had. Not changed the marital status anywhere even in Europe, do I have to change it divorced first and then get married or can I directly get married?
A.Dear Client,
To legally validate your remarriage or second marriage, it is necessary to obtain a divorce through a court decree before entering into a new marriage. Without a court-issued divorce decree nullifying the previous marriage, either spouse is prohibited from marrying another person. Such a marriage contravenes the conditions outlined in Section 5(1) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, rendering it void under Section 11 of the Act.

A.Dear Client,
To make your remarriage or 2nd marriage legally valid, you get divorced first through a decree of the Court and then get remarried. In the absence of a decree of divorce passed by a competent Court of law annulling a marriage, either spouse cannot remarry another man or woman, and such a marriage that violates the condition of Sec.5(1) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 and termed as void marriage as per Sec.11 of the Act.
