Since you appear to be unable to get an Egyptian divorce, as a UK resident can you get a UK divorce?

Thanks for the info. Today in egypt they did say to me they will give me a letter based on ruling to confirm that my marriage has been ended and to get it stamped at the foreign affairs office in cairo and translated.

Hi Long story is I am a non egyptian man.  I am divorcing my egyptian spouse

 

 

 

I went to the ministry of justice in March 2023 for a revocable divorce in absentia and got a revocable divorce also known as a Talaq (raji, ragee etc.. ),

 

 

 

I got the certificate from the civil sector office in Abbiseya and stamped from there and then got it stamped at the foreign affairs office in Masr gadida (heliopolis) and then translated by a certified translator as per the guidance here  Egypt (state.gov)

 

 

 

I returned to the uk and now I have come back after 110 days after the Iddah ( waiting period) had ended.

 

 

 

After 110 days I didnt take my egyptian wife back and i now went back to the ministry of justice ( also known as Lazghouly) to get the Talaq Bain (irrevocable divorce)

 

 

 

My ex partner is refusing to come to the Lazghouly ( ministry of justice ) to do signatures for the Talaq ( Divorce ) Bain ( irrevocable ) and now the Ministry of Justice is refusing to give me a Talaq bain ( irrevocable divorce).

 

Im wanting to get married to someone i met from the USA about almost a year ago but i cannot until i get the Irrevocable divorce . If the ministry is refusing my divorce how can i prove i tried to get the divorce if we ever decided we want to establish a life in the USA.

 

Can i get Any letters or documents such as an islamic fatwa from the state council court in Cairo or from the Grand Al azhar mosque to say i have an Irrevocable divorce and will not be taking her back. Would that suffice for the US immigration Authorities if we ever decided to settle and establish a life in the USA.

The State Council’s General Assembly of Legal Opinion and Legislation Departments-SIS

 

 

 

Please can someone help guide or give me any ideas me where i go from here. It would be much appreciated.

 

 

 

Thanks

Some religious document from a mosque will not cut it when it comes to US immigration’s requirement for divorce decrees issued by courts, sorry.
