Divorce in Ireland - Ireland Divorce Law

Is it possible to seek divorce in Ireland after only one year and one day of separation?

Ireland divorce law

In Ireland, the Divorce Act requires that (a) the parties have lived apart for at least four of the five years before proceedings are issued. This does not necessarily mean that they were living in separate houses; (b) at least one of the parties is domiciled in the Republic of Ireland or has lived there for a year before starting the action; (c) there is no reasonable prospect of reconciliation and (d) both parties, as well as any children, are properly provided for.

Another possibility is to seek a decree of nullity, which means that the marriage never existed. The most common ground for a decree of nullity is that, at the time they married, the spouses were unable to "enter into and sustain a normal marital relationship". Such a claim is normally based on the psychological condition of one or both spouses. A decree of nullity allows people to marry other people, as if the former "marriage" never existed. There is no minimum waiting time and it may provide a way to avoid the financial burden of a divorce.

...But consult with a lawyer too as there are often exceptions or other jurisdictional issues that apply etc.

It is not always so clear cut.
