Who is responsible for paying the fee in a consensual divorce?
According to Article 149 of the 2015 Civil Procedure Code, the obligation to pay fees is stipulated as follows:
Obligation to pay fees
1. The obligation to pay fees is determined depending on each specific type of civil matter and is prescribed by law.
2. For requests for recognition of consensual divorce, agreement on child custody, and division of property upon divorce, the husband and wife may agree on the payment of fees, except in cases where they are exempted or do not have to pay fees according to the provisions of law.
In case the husband and wife cannot agree on who is responsible for paying the fee, each person must pay half of the fee.
Thus, for the request for recognition of consensual divorce, you and your spouse can agree on the fee. If you cannot agree, each person will pay half of the fee.
According to current regulations in Resolution 326/2016/UBTVQH14, the fees for consensual divorce are currently as follows:
The first instance fee is 300,000 VND.
The appeal fee is 300,000 VND.
