国際離婚(離婚の効力/Validity of Divorce)

【日本語】

日本の離婚の9割は協議離婚です。協議離婚とは、裁判所を介さず、当事者の話し合い(合意)で離婚することです。

それでは、外国人が日本で日本人と協議離婚をした場合、外国人が自分の国で再婚できるのでしょうか?

 

海外の多くの国では、離婚には裁判所の手続きが必要です。確認が必要ですが、おそらく協議離婚は海外では認められないケースが多いと思われます。結果として、自分の国で離婚が成立していないため、再婚もできません。

 

【ENGLISH】

About 90% of divorce in Japan are done by the consensus between the couple (kyougi rikon). If foreigners got divorced with Japanese in Japan by kyougi rikon, can he or she get re-married in his or her country?

 

In many foreign countries, kyougi rikon (divorce only by the consensus between the couple) is not officially approved, but a divorce at court only. It means that the divorce in Japan is invalid in his or her country and as a consequence, re-marriage is not allowed.

 

So, it is recommended that before taking any procedure regarding divorce in Japan, he or she should contact embassy or legal specialist to check the validity of divorce in Japan in his or her country.

 

【TAGALOG】

Halos 90% ng hiwalay sa Japan ay nauuwi sa kasunduan ng magasawa.

Kapag ang banyaga ay nakipag hiwalay gawa ng kasunduan sa Japan,sila ba ay pwedeng ikasal ulit sa kanilang bansa?

 

Sa karamihan bansa, ang kasunduan na sinagawa ay hindi opisyal na aaprubahan, kundi sa korte lamang. Ang kahulugan nito ay hindi wasto ang kasunduan na sinagawa sa Japan sa bansa ng banyaga, at ang ikasal ulit ay hindi pinapayagan.

 

Kaya, inirerekumeda na makipag-ugnayan sa embahada o ligal na dalubhasa bago gumawa ng anu mang proseso tungkol sa paghihiwalay sa Japan upang masuri ang pagiging wasto ng hiwalayan sa inyong bansa.
