What is the validity of divorce on notary paper
20-Jan-2023 (In Divorce Law)
in 2012 me and my wife mutually decided to get separated. we got a notary paper made and signed that paper and agreed for divorce. I am married to another woman now, and my previous wife has also remarried. My question is that is the previous divorce done on a notary paper is valid?
The only way to get divorce is by filing divorce petition in family court,however consent term can be written and notarised but only that paper is not enough for divorce. Judgement and decree of court is compulsory for marriage be dissolved.

Hi Divorce on notary paper is not valid , both of you can file a Petition for mutual consent divorce which will be granted after six months . Hence the second marriage by both of you is not valid till the dissolution of first marriage legally by a Divorce Decree by Family Court.

Hi
The divorce paper made by notary is not permissible in law therefore it cannot be said that you have divorce your wife legally.
Validity of that document is very negligible if it is called for evidence in the court.

It is illegal to divorce your wife using a divorce document signed by a notary. The validity of this document is negligible, if its used as evidence in court.
