How to get Divorce decree in English copy?


01-Apr-2024 (In Divorce Law)
I have Divorce decree from TN district court (year 2021) for divorce through mutual consent. The Original court decree is in Tamil. I would like to get the copy in English. Please suggest a to get the document translated to English legally and get it certified. I reached court staff and they said they don't issue order in English. Purpose of asking a copy in English is to remove spouse name from Passport and to show proof of marital status as divorced for immigration.

If court gives order or judgement in Kannada language Or other any language than English then you can't see the same judgement from judge in the English but you have the way out that you can get it translated and certified through the certified type typist and you can produce it along with the Canada language order wherever you want to submit it is acceptable.

Dear Sir, Legally speaking the Court is duty bound to get it translated but who shall bell the cat. King can do no wrong. Thus we cannot do any thing. However there are Certified and Government recognised translators available online through them you can get it translated and stamped and sealed. It is a valid document for Passport authorities.
