Ability to remarry

Once a divorce is final and the court has issued a divorce order, both parties are able to remarry. When filing their Intention to Marry, a divorced party is required to provide proof of their divorce. Since February 2010 the Federal Circuit Court will only issue a digital order with an electronic seal and signature.

Before the date of finalisation of the divorce, both parties are still legally married and it is a criminal offence to marry another person.
