What documents do I need if my marriage is terminated?
All applicants who have divorced or whose spouses have died must provide an original and a clear photocopy of proof of the legal termination of all previous marriages of the petitioner and/or visa applicant (death certificate of spouse, divorce decree). Divorce between Hindus, Christians, and Parsis must be documented by a court order. Divorce between muslims must be documented by a certificate from the Kazi or the head of the Jammat. If any of these documents were issued in a local in language, a notarized English translation is required in addition to the original.
