The Family Court can legally end (dissolve) your marriage or civil union if you’ve lived apart for two years or more.

Dissolving a marriage or civil union is the legal term for divorce. The Family Court can end your marriage or civil union by making a Dissolution Order, if New Zealand is usually home for one of you.

You can ask the Family Court for a Dissolution Order (Divorce) if both of you want this and you have grounds to do so. If only one of you wants to divorce, that person can ask the Family Court to make a decision. Asking the Family Court to make an order is known as applying for an order.

The fee for applying for a Dissolution Order is $211.50 (including GST).
