Divorce Law FAQs
What is the role of the Family Guidance Committee in the UAE divorce process?
The Family Guidance Committee plays a crucial role in the UAE divorce process by attempting to mediate between spouses to resolve marital disputes before the case proceeds to court. Both parties are required to attend a reconciliation session where the committee will explore potential solutions to avoid divorce. If reconciliation is not possible, the committee will issue a report allowing the case to proceed to the court for further action.
Can expatriates choose the laws of their home country for divorce proceedings in the UAE?
Yes, expatriates in the UAE have the option to choose whether to have their divorce proceedings governed by UAE law or the laws of their home country. This choice is especially relevant for issues like asset division and child custody, where the outcomes can differ significantly depending on the legal framework applied.
How long does the divorce process typically take in the UAE?
The duration of the divorce process in the UAE can vary depending on whether the divorce is contested or uncontested. An uncontested divorce, where both parties agree on the terms, can be completed in as little as one to three months. However, if there are disputes over issues such as child custody, alimony, or asset division, the process may take longer as these matters are resolved in court.
