What is the validity of the divorce certificate outside and in U.K.? Print E-mail
IN U.K.
The Islamic Sharia Council deals with the islamic divorce only and islamic divorce certificate issued by it has neither any association with the civil divorce nor has any bearing on it.

If the couple had an islamic marriage only and did not have a civil registration, civil divorce is not required and Islamic divorce cerfiticate will suffice them. Otherwise both are required to conclude the divorce.

OUTSIDE U.K.
If the couple married outside U.K. then both divorces are necessary to finalize the matter i.e. Civil and Islamic divorce.  It does not matter whether the spouse was sponsored to UK or not as the marriage is legally valid as long as it is recognised by the country it takes place in. For details please see Foreign Marriage Act 1892.
