Choosing the route
Talaq, khula, mutual consent or court dissolution.
About Divorce Procedure
In Pakistan a Muslim marriage can end in several ways: talaq pronounced by the husband, khula sought by the wife, divorce by mutual consent, or dissolution by the family court on grounds that the law recognises. Each route has its own notice, court and documents.
The right choice depends on who wants to end the marriage and why, whether there are children, and what is owed or claimed, such as dower and maintenance. We explain the procedure, prepare the papers and, when a court case is needed, support you through the family court.

Common Questions
Short answers about divorce procedure.
How long does a divorce take in Pakistan?
It depends on the route and on how the other side responds. Talaq has a statutory notice period, and court cases take longer if they are contested. We give you a realistic idea after hearing your case.
Can a wife ask for a divorce?
Yes. A wife can seek khula or ask the family court to dissolve the marriage on legal grounds. See our khula page for details.
Is divorce different for non-Muslims?
Yes. Different laws apply to non-Muslim marriages. Tell us your situation and we will explain the rules that apply.
Will a divorce be recorded by NADRA?
Your marital status is updated with NADRA using the divorce certificate or the court decree. We guide you on the documents.
