International Family Law

More and more people are going abroad for their studies or work. This international trend also has consequences for relationships. People enter into relationships with partners from other countries or live abroad with their families. An international aspect has many consequences for family law.

If you or your partner does not live in the Netherlands, or if your partner does not have Dutch nationality and you want to divorce, you may be wondering:

  • What rules apply?
  • Which court has jurisdiction?
  • Does the ruling of a court from another country also apply in the Netherlands?

It may be possible to start a procedure in different countries. Therefore, it is important to be well-informed and advised about your legal position.
