    Understanding Divorce & Civil Partnership Dissolution

    To apply for a no-fault divorce or civil partnership dissolution in England and Wales:

    • You must have been married or in a civil partnership for at least one year
    • Your relationship must have permanently broken down
    • You must be habitually resident or domiciled in England or Wales

    If you have been married for less than a year, you may apply for a legal separation instead. This allows you to formalize the separation without ending the marriage or civil partnership—which can be beneficial for personal or religious reasons.
