Municipality of Heerde: registering a divorce in the civil registry
Your lawyer will send the divorce decree to the civil registrar in the municipality where you got married. The registrar will then register your divorce.
Do you live in a municipality other than the one in which you got married? Then the registrar will inform your municipality of residence.
There is no fee for registering your divorce with the municipality. Do you need proof of your divorce? If so, an official copy of or excerpt from the divorce decree costs: € 16,60.
Once the municipality has received the documents, it will register the divorce as soon as possible. The divorce becomes official as soon as the municipality registers it in the civil registry.
