If you have a local residence permit, you can get a divorce by local agreement

If not, the divorce can only be registered at the marriage registration authority where one of the parties to the marriage is permanently resided.

According to the Marriage Registration Regulations:

Article 10: Where a mainland resident voluntarily divorces, both men and women shall jointly go to the marriage registration authority for the place where one of the parties has a permanent residence to register for divorce.

Where a Chinese citizen voluntarily divorces a foreigner in Chinese mainland, or a mainland resident voluntarily divorces with a Hong Kong resident, Macao resident, Taiwan resident or overseas Chinese in Chinese mainland, both men and women shall jointly go to the marriage registration authority at the place where the mainland resident has a permanent household registration to complete the divorce registration.

Article 11 Mainland residents who go through divorce registration shall present the following documents and supporting materials:

1) The person's household registration booklet and ID card;

2) The person's marriage certificate;

3) A divorce agreement signed by both parties.

In addition to the certificates and supporting materials provided for in items (2) and (3) of the preceding paragraph, Hong Kong residents, Macao residents, and Taiwan residents who have gone through divorce registration shall also present their own valid passes and identity cards, and overseas Chinese and foreigners shall also present their own valid passports or other valid international travel documents.

The divorce agreement shall clearly state the parties' expression of intent to divorce voluntarily and the opinions reached through consultation on matters such as child support, property and debt disposition.

No. You must have a certificate from the local civil affairs bureau police station in your hometown or in-law's house.

You have to be separated for two years before you can get a divorce, or both of you can agree to a divorce.

Legal analysis: It is necessary to file a divorce with the court at the place of residence of one party, and if it is inconvenient, one party can sue for divorce in the place of habitual residence, and also mediate the divorce by agreement after the lawsuit.

Legal basis: Civil Code of the People's Republic of China
