Yes it is -- its one of the places that grants very fast divorces, hence why many Americans run there to get one.

I don't know the details of how you go about it -- but you can be divorced there.

I remember that was a big deal with Marc Anthony -- he had a quickie divorce there and then immediately married Jennifer Lopez after that. I've also had some clients that got divorced there and brought me the papers. Its legal.

As soon as I read the Marc Anthony thing I said "oh yeahhhhhhhhhh" Chat Icon

Crazy that you can divorce in another country--but great for those that want it done quickly!
