  1. The Requirements of Annulment in The Requirements of Annulment in Singapore Singapore A legal process known as an annulment is used to end a marriage and declare it null, meaning the marriage never actually happened.

Contrary to a divorce, which dissolves a marriage without acknowledging its prior existence. Singapore's Requirements for Annuling a Marriage Can I Legally Dissolve my Marriage here if I'm not a Singaporean? You can have your null or voidable marriage annulled in Singapore regardless of nationality. However, you and your husband must be residing in Singapore when you begin the process of annulment in Singapore. The Deadline for Requesting a Marriage Annulment If your marriage is voidable, you must file for an annulment within three years of getting hitched.

  2. Unless you claim your marriage is null and void because one party refused to consummate the union or both parties could not, it has not been consummated. You may file for an annulment regardless of how long you have been married, only if you do so for this purpose. There is no deadline by which you must submit an application to have your marriage declared null and void. Proof that your Marriage is Null and/or Voidable You must first provide enough proof that your marriage is invalid or voidable to annul it. The court may decline to issue an annulment, for instance, if you allege that your marriage is voidable because your spouse refused to consummate the union, but you cannot provide sufficient proof of this. But, even if you can provide sufficient proof that your marriage is null and void, a court may still refuse to annul your marriage if the following conditions are met: Although you had the option to dissolve the marriage, your actions led your husband to assume that you would not; Giving your husband an annulment would be unfair. Moreover, keep in mind that when requesting an annulment in Singapore, you must be truthful. On December 22, 2020, a man was sentenced to one week in prison for falsely claiming to the court that he and his wife had not legally married to obtain an annulment. In Singapore, do you need Legal Representation to File for a Marriage Annulment? No, you can get an annulment on your own. But without a lawyer, annulments might be challenging to understand.
