Decree of Divorce

    Hi all

    I got my divorce granted on the 16.10.19 and I have a scanned copy of the court stamped Decree of Divorce from my solicitor.

    Is there another form I need to get after this, a legal certificate of some kind?

    I was on the birth cert site and you only get an option for obtaining marriage certificates so not sure where I need to go or what I need to be doing.

    The court stamped decree done my mother for changing her surname at the bank and other stuff. Get to an office centre and get a few photocopies of it. Keep the original yourself.

    I never changed my name so I am ok in that respect but something is telling me I have more paperwork due to me?

    Yes, In England you need a decree nisi to get to court. Closest thing here is a deed of separation, which comes before the divorce. Like the nisi in England comes before the divorce.
