Frequently Asked Questions

Can NRIs file for divorce without traveling to Bangalore?

Yes, NRIs can file and complete mutual divorce proceedings without visiting Bangalore by using a Special Power of Attorney (SPoA) or video conferencing, as permitted by Indian courts since the 2017 *Krishna Veni Nagam* ruling.

How long does an NRI mutual divorce take in Bangalore?

Typically, 6-18 months, including a 6-month cooling-off period. Post-2023 Supreme Court rulings, this can be waived in exceptional cases, reducing it to weeks if terms are settled.

What’s the cost of an NRI divorce in Bangalore?

Costs range from ₹20,000 to ₹1,50,000, including lawyer fees (₹15,000-₹75,000), court fees (~₹15), and an additional ₹5,000 for NRI-specific services like remote filings.

Is a foreign divorce decree valid in India?

Not automatically. Per Section 13, CPC, it’s invalid if it violates Indian law, lacks jurisdiction, or breaches natural justice. Validation requires an Indian court order.

Can NRIs file for divorce in Bangalore if married abroad?

Yes, if one spouse resides in Bangalore or the couple last lived there together. The Hindu Marriage Act or Special Marriage Act applies, depending on the marriage type.
