After tero certificate is there any procedure left to do? Tero certificate mean it cancellation from civil register? After cancellation how many days have to wait for remarried in goa?


A. Dear Client,

Typically, in divorce cases, except for mutual consent divorces, individuals usually have to wait for approximately 90 days to ensure that there are no appeals filed against the last order, judgment, or decree. The issuance of the TEOR certificate usually occurs only after this time period has elapsed. If this condition is met, then considering remarriage becomes an option. Otherwise, it is advisable to wait for the full 90-day period.
