Foreign Divorce Opinion Letter

We can draft you a Foreign Legal Divorce Opinion Letter for the low price of just $200+HST. If you were divorced outside Ontario and now want to remarry in Ontario, you need to submit a legal opinion letter about the validity of your foreign divorce. This is required for authorization to remarry in Ontario. We guide you through the process.

A foreign divorce opinion letter is a legal document prepared by a lawyer/solicitor that provides an opinion on the validity and legal recognition of a divorce obtained in a foreign country. 

What we need from you...

  • Your foreign divorce decree, judgment, or a court-certified copy of same. If your document is in another language, you will need a certified translation. 
  • Information about whether you or your ex-spouse lived in the foreign country that granted the divorce for at least one year before the divorce was granted and finalized
  • Your two pieces of identification (e.g. Driver’s Licence, Passport, Permanent Residence Card, etc., but no health card)
  • When you are available by Video Conference, or to come into our office, to show your ID’s and divorce documents
  • Your final letter will be mailed to you; there is no need to go anywhere in person.

Other Documents you need to submit

  • A Statement of Sole Responsibility signed by both you and your intended spouse. This must be witnessed by one other individual, which can be a friend or acquaintance over 18. We can also witness this for you.
