==Need for the Document==&lt;br /&gt;
*Validating a foreign divorce decree in the United States means obtaining legal recognition of a divorce that was granted by a foreign court in a country outside of the United States. When a foreign divorce decree is recognized in the United States, it has the same legal effect as a divorce granted by a court in the United States.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==Information which might help==&lt;br /&gt;
*The process of validating a foreign divorce decree involves filing a petition with a court in the United States to have the decree recognized.&lt;br /&gt;
*This may require providing documentation of the foreign divorce, including a certified copy of the decree and evidence that the foreign court had jurisdiction to grant the divorce.&lt;br /&gt;
*The court will review the documentation and determine whether to recognize the foreign divorce decree.&lt;br /&gt;
