Which court?
Jurisdiction depends on factors such as the place of marriage, last residence together and the respondent’s residence.
Foreign decrees
A decree from a foreign court may not be recognised in India unless it meets the conditions in Section 13 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
Practical points
Attested or apostilled documents, service abroad and video appearance rules often matter. Check each with a lawyer before you act.
