Frequently Asked Questions

Divorce in Taiwan is either (1) by mutual consent, which must be in writing, signed by at least two witnesses, and registered with the household administration authority, or (2) judicial divorce (mediation then litigation). International divorce between Korea and Taiwan involves complex issues of applicable law, jurisdiction, property division, and custody, so consulting a lawyer familiar with both legal systems is essential.

Taiwan courts decide based on the best interests of the child, considering the parenting environment, parents' financial capacity, and the child's wishes. In international cases, private international law principles such as habitual residence also apply.
