How much will my Dominican Republic divorce papers cost me?

We charge in two stages:
  1. TO SEARCH - We charge depending on when the divorce was, and whether you possess old copies of your divorce documents:
    • US$95 - after 2000, and you have copies you can send us
    • US$195 - after 2000, but you don't have any old divorce documents
    • US$195 - before 2000, and you have copies you can send us
    • US$295 - before 2000, but you don't have any old divorce documents
  2. THEN WE CHARGE (see below) FOR YOUR DIVORCE PAPERS - All fees for Dominican divorce papers mentioned below include shipping by certified international airmail which generally take between 2 and 8 weeks to arrive from the moment of shipping. For a supplement of only US$95 we can offer expedited shipping with UPS which takes just a few days to arrive most places.

Product Details Cost
Your Dominican divorce certificate The Dominican divorce certificate is definitive proof that the divorce is irreversible and final, and that the marriage ended. For an original long-form divorce certificate with legalisation and apostille. US$115
Your Dominican divorce decree From the court, we shall have it certified and apostilled for it to be valid in most countries. US$295
Your entire divorce file from the Dominican courthouse Includes:
  • A certified and apostilled divorce decree.
  • All documentation on file in the courthouse relating to your divorce such as copies of custody/separation agreements etc, and perhaps even a copy of the divorce announcement which appeared in the newspaper. Because not all of these documents were issued by the court (newspaper announcement etc), the entire file cannot be legalised or apostilled, only the decree.
 US$395
