A quick definition of foreign divorce:

A foreign divorce is when a married couple gets divorced in a different place than where they live. For example, if a couple lives in the United States but gets divorced in France, that would be a foreign divorce.

A more thorough explanation:

A foreign divorce is when a married couple gets divorced in a different country or state than the one they live in. This means that the divorce was granted by a court in a different jurisdiction or country from where the couple resides.

  • John and Jane got married in the United States but later moved to Canada. They decided to get a divorce, and Jane filed for divorce in Canada. This is an example of a foreign divorce because the divorce was granted in a different country from where they got married.
  • Tom and Sarah got married in France but later moved to the United Kingdom. They decided to get a divorce, and Tom filed for divorce in France. This is also an example of a foreign divorce because the divorce was granted in a different country from where they currently live.

These examples illustrate how a foreign divorce can occur when a couple gets divorced in a different country or state from where they got married or currently reside. It is important to note that the laws and procedures for divorce can vary between different jurisdictions, so it is important to seek legal advice if you are considering getting a foreign divorce.
