Official process

Mutual Divorce in Guwahati: the process in Assam

Registration and legal formalities are governed at the state level, so the exact law, portal and fees for Guwahati follow Assam's rules. Here's how it works.

Governing law. s.13B Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (Hindu/Buddhist/Sikh/Jain) or s.28 Special Marriage Act, 1954 (civil/inter-faith), read with the Family Courts Act, 1984. In Guwahati these are filed before the Family Court, Kamrup (Metro); the Gauhati High Court and its rules apply procedurally.

Where to applyeCourts/Kamrup (Metro) District Judiciary for filing support and case status (kamrupjudiciary.gov.in and districts.ecourts.gov.in/kamrupmetro); no fully online consent-divorce process.
Government feesModest court filing fees (a few hundred rupees of court fee stamps); the major cost is advocate fees, which vary widely. Confirm the current schedule with the Family Court.
Typical timelineRoughly 6–18 months under the standard cooling-off; a few weeks to a few months where the Family Court waives the six-month period and all terms are settled.

How mutual divorce works in Assam

  1. Spouses agree on all terms and jointly draft the petition
  2. File the joint petition (first motion) before the Family Court, Kamrup (Metro)
  3. Court records statements of both parties at the first motion
  4. Statutory cooling-off period of six months (waivable per Amardeep Singh v. Harveen Kaur, 2017)
  5. Both parties appear for the second motion confirming consent is not withdrawn (within 18 months)
  6. Court records second-motion statements and passes the decree

Documents required in Assam

  • Marriage certificate or proof of marriage
  • Address proofs of both spouses
  • Photographs of both spouses
  • Proof of separation for at least one year
  • Mutual settlement terms (custody, maintenance, property, stridhan)
  • Joint petition under s.13B / s.28 with supporting affidavits
  • Income/financial details if maintenance is involved

Good to know in Assam: Requires living separately for at least one year and genuine mutual consent that subsists until the second motion. The six-month gap is waivable at the court's discretion. All ancillary issues should be settled to keep it uncontested. Muslim couples follow personal-law procedures.

There is usually a six-month cooling-off period between the first and second motions, though courts may waive it in suitable cases. Your lawyer will advise based on your situation.
