Questions & answers
Can we divorce without going to court?
Yes — if both spouses agree and there is no dispute over children or property, the divorce can be registered with the Civil Registry (through the Public Service Hall). Otherwise the divorce is decided by a court.
How is property divided?
Property acquired during the marriage is the spouses' joint property and is, as a rule, divided equally unless a marriage contract says otherwise. Property owned before marriage, gifts and inheritance remain personal property.
How is alimony determined?
Parents must support their minor children. The amount depends on the child's needs and the parents' financial situation — set by agreement or by the court.
