Legal analysis: If both parties meet the requirements for divorce registration stipulated by foreign laws, then both parties can register for divorce abroad. The "divorce certificate" issued by foreign countries has the risk of not being recognized by domestic administrative organs and judicial organs. Of course, divorce proceedings can also be conducted abroad, and China courts can recognize the divorce judgments of foreign courts. If there is a civil judicial assistance treaty between China and foreign countries, it shall be handled in accordance with the provisions of the treaty. For a divorce judgment made by a foreign court that has not concluded a judicial assistance agreement with China (the United States has not concluded a civil judicial assistance treaty with China), a China party may apply to the people's court for recognition of the divorce judgment of the foreign court in accordance with these provisions.

Legal basis: Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Article 1076 If a husband and wife divorce voluntarily, they shall sign a written divorce agreement and apply for divorce registration in person at the marriage registration office.

The divorce agreement shall specify the expression of willingness of both parties to divorce and the consensus on matters such as child support, property and debt disposal.

Article 1079 If one of the spouses requests a divorce, the relevant organization may mediate or directly file a divorce lawsuit with the people's court.

When trying divorce cases, the people's court shall conduct mediation; If the relationship has indeed broken down and mediation is ineffective, divorce should be granted.

In any of the following circumstances, if mediation fails, divorce shall be granted:

(a) bigamy or cohabitation with others;

(2) committing domestic violence or abusing or abandoning family members;

(three) gambling, drug abuse and other bad habits;

(four) separated for two years due to emotional discord;

(5) Other circumstances that lead to the breakdown of the marriage relationship.

If one party is declared missing and the other party files a divorce lawsuit, the divorce shall be granted.

After the people's court ruled that divorce is not allowed, if the two parties have separated for one year and one party files a divorce lawsuit again, divorce shall be granted.
