Dutch man need help to recognition divorce from oversea

I looked it up for you and this is what he has to do:

if he lives in the Netherlands, or goes back to live there, he must go to the city hall with the following documents:

* the original divorce decree . This must show that the decision is final (there can no longer be appealed against) . The verdict is not in Dutch , German, English or French ? Then the text should be translated by a sworn translator / interpreter .
Is the judgment registered in the registry office in the country of the statement to make it legally Then you take the evidence of such registration along.

* Legalisation of documents
Documents from most countries must be legalized or provided with a so-called Apostille. Within the country This is an internationally recognized , additional certification of the signature of the authority issuing the document afgeeft.Bij a divorce is that the clerk of the court .
If the document is translated, the translation must be legalized .

For divorce from countries of the European Union is not required , the legalization of documents if you have a " Brussels II bis certificate " . This is a statement of the clerk of the court that the divorce pronounced . You can get this from your foreign lawyer .

If all documents are in order, your divorce registered within four weeks. You will receive a confirmation .

If he is still abroad then he can register the divorce in Den Haag.
