About this translation
Several US states issue a divorce certificate through their vital records office. It is separate from the court judgment itself (the divorce decree) and summarises the divorce: names of the former spouses, date of marriage, date the divorce was granted and the county of the court. Depending on the state, it may also give other details, such as the number of children.
When do you need it translated?
Remarrying or entering a PACS in France, to show your previous marriage has ended
Updating your French civil status after a divorce granted in the United States
Dividing property, settling an estate or buying a home with a notaire
A residence permit or naturalisation file that looks at your family situation
Our translation
We translate the whole certificate: fields, handwritten entries, stamps, state seal and signatures. The format depends on the state and the period of issue, so pick the version that matches yours. For some procedures the authority may also ask for the divorce decree itself, so check before you order.
