We translate UK Decree Absolute (final divorce order) documents from English into Spanish, Italian, French or German. This is often required when registering a divorce or remarrying abroad.
Requirements vary between countries and receiving authorities. We recommend confirming what is required with the specific authority before ordering.
Requirements differ between countries and between authorities within the same country. This page reflects what is often -- but not always -- required. Always confirm exact requirements with the specific authority you are dealing with before placing your order.
We translate the Decree Absolute (the final divorce order), not the Decree Nisi (the conditional order).
If you only have a Decree Nisi, you will need to obtain the Decree Absolute from the relevant court before ordering a translation.
Some civil registries abroad require an apostille on the original Decree Absolute alongside the translation. Check with the receiving authority.
Select the country your document will be used in for specific information about what is often required in that country.

Foreign authorities requiring proof of divorce generally require the Decree Absolute, which is the final divorce order, rather than the Decree Nisi. If you only have a Decree Nisi, you will need to obtain the Decree Absolute from the court first. We can then translate it for you.
