My husband and I have been married for two years, in a traditional ceremony with our families’ blessings. However, we haven’t registered our marriage legally. It’s become clear that we’re not meant to be together anymore. I want to separate, but I’d rather avoid the lengthy divorce process. Is there a simpler, more affordable way to legally separate, perhaps with some agreed-upon terms? My husband seems to be on the same page, so it feels like we’re both looking for a clean break.

As your marriage wasn’t legally registered, it is not recognized under Indian law. This means you are not legally married and therefore, there’s no need for a formal divorce. You can simply separate, but it is advisable to have a clear written agreement outlining any financial or property arrangements to avoid future disputes.
