DIVORCE

Expert legal advice for personal and business matters. Trust us to guide you through every step.

In Belgium, there are three main types of divorce:

Consensual Divorce (Echtscheiding met Onderlinge Toestemming, or EOT): Both spouses agree to the divorce terms and submit a joint petition to the court.

Divorce by Mutual Consent (Scheiding van Tafel en Bed): This is a legal separation rather than a full divorce. It allows spouses to live separately while maintaining their marital status.

Divorce by Court Decision (Echtscheiding op Grond van Onherstelbare Ontwrichting): If both parties cannot reach an agreement, they can file for divorce based on irreconcilable differences.
