Help! Filipina married to a Japanese wants divorce

by Pye
(Philippines)

I’m a Filipina married to a Japanese guy. I thought that my life would be happy. He promised a lot of things. Yes, he brought me to Japan but when I got there, there were many problems. He always hurt me when he was drunk. I was with him for 1 week. After that I went back to the Philippines because I could not take him anymore.

But because I was the bread winner, I had to make some money. I decided to go back to Japan but I never went back to him. I overstayed in Japan because I wanted to divorce him but he did not agree. Our marriage is almost 6 years now.

I’m back here in the Philippines but not divorced yet. I just want to ask if I can file an annulment of our marriage here in the Philippines. I hope someone can answer my question.

Thank you and God bless to all!


Dom's Reply: Pye confirmed that she and her Japanese husband got married in the Philippines in February 2005. Any advice may help other Filipinas married to Japanese in similar situations. Thanks for sharing, Pye.

 divorce papers
by: october171986

I already passed the divorce papers. Do I need to send anything to the embassy? Do I need the certificate of no objection?

Yes, since you are a Filipino (Filipina), you can file a petition for anullment or nullity of marriage here in the Philippines.

We can refer you to our website xx.

 Married in the Philippines
by: Anonymous

We are not married in Japan, only in the Philippines. Yes, I already filed a declaration of annulment of marriage but it's almost 2 years now. It's not yet finished. I'm so disappointed with the system of the Philippines. I just want to get my freedom.

 More marriage information needed
by: Anonymous

You need to tell us more about how you got married to be able to answer those questions. Did you get married in the Philippines and Japan as well? Did you already try to find your husband by all means? Because you can file for divorce on the grounds of the person going missing if it is already that long.

As for the last question, you cannot marry until your divorce with your current husband is final.

 Filipina married to a Japanese wants help, too!
by: Ma. Annie Laurente

I'm a Filipina married to a Japanese guy in Cebu. But after our marriage he left me. It's been 5 years now with no communication with him. I heard that our marriage here in Cebu was not updated in Japan.

Questions.

1. How will our marriage be voided or annulled in the Philippines?

2. Is it legal even our marriage is not updated in Japan?

3. Can I go to Japan even my Japanese husband will not give entry visa?

4. Can I marry again even if our marriage is not yet void?
