Certified Certificates

A Divorce certificate is also referred to as a Decree Absolute, Divorce Certificate, Divorce Affidavit, Legal Decree, or Divorce Absolute.

You will receive a fully certified legal copy of a Decree Absolute, suitable for official purposes.

Reasons you may require a replacement certificate are:
You have lost your decree absolute, or you need a replacement, you've been married or in a civil partnership before so you'll need evidence you're free to remarry or enter a new civil partnership, or you require an extra copy or even to find out whether a friend or relative has been divorced.
