Which Law Applies To A Divorce In Dubai?
Muslim parties are heard under the UAE personal status law. Since Federal Decree Law No. 41 of 2022, a non-Muslim expatriate may ask the Dubai Court to apply UAE civil personal status law, and in defined circumstances the law of the country where the marriage took place may be applied instead.
How Long Does A Divorce Take In Dubai?
A mutual divorce where both spouses agree on custody, maintenance and property can conclude within a few weeks of the first family guidance session. A contested matter passes through family guidance, the Court of First Instance and any appeal, and commonly runs several months.
Do Both Spouses Have To Attend The Court?
Attendance is required at the family guidance stage, which is the mandatory conciliation step before a case is registered. After that, an advocate holding a notarised power of attorney can attend hearings and file pleadings on your behalf.
What Documents Are Needed To File For Divorce In Dubai?
