Divorce in Iran vs. Australia: Key Legal Differences and Your Rights

Divorce laws in Iran and Australia are significantly different, particularly when it comes to who can initiate the process and the conditions under which it can be granted.

However, women in Iran can seek divorce under specific conditions, such as abuse or the husband's incurable illness, with the intervention of an Islamic judge. This blog explores these key legal differences and what they mean for those navigating divorce in both countries.
