ABSTRACT
A transnational divorce103 is a divorce where some of the relevant acts are performed in country A and some in country B. The expression transnational divorce does not appear in the Recognition of Divorces and Legal Separations Act 1971 or the Family Law Act 1986. For example, a husband having Pakistani nationality might pronounce the talaq in England and then send the relevant details to Pakistan to comply with Muslim Family Ordinance 1961; such a form of divorce might be described as a transnational divorce.
