Foreign clients can end a marriage in Egypt where the Family Court has jurisdiction — for example, if the marriage was registered locally, one spouse is Egyptian, there is domicile or habitual residence, or the dispute concerns assets or children in Egypt. We manage international family cases and clarify the correct route for Muslims, Christians, and mixed-nationality couples.
Our service is tailored for non-Egyptian spouses married to Egyptians and for foreign couples married in Egypt. We map the pathway, align evidence and documents with court standards, and handle filings and hearings end-to-end — giving expats a clear and compliant process from start to judgment.
ANGLO–NILE INTERNATIONAL LEGAL SERVICES LTD contracts directly with clients. The company collaborates with the lawyers the company cooperates with in Egypt and certified translators in Cairo. We deliver under Egyptian law only (not UK law) and remain responsible for the agreed scope, timelines, and communication.
Key prerequisites to progress a case efficiently and in line with Family Court practice. We confirm jurisdiction early and outline a concise five-step plan.
We check the place of marriage registration, nationalities and religions, residence ties, and any prior foreign orders. In cross-border matters, foreign documents must be legalised and translated into Arabic by certified translators before use in court.
