Hello,

Thank you for sharing your question with us.

You can find some detailed information on the
Ministry of the Attorney General website in the How to get a copy of a Divorce Order, Certificate of Divorce or other court document section.

It states,

In order to obtain a copy of any of these documents, you must request them from the court office where the case was started.

If you are unable to attend in person, you may ask a representative to attend on your behalf or you may write to the court office.

You may wish to call the court office in advance to ask about any steps that are necessary in order to obtain the documents. For example, a fee of $19.00 is charged in order to obtain a Certificate of Divorce.


In situations where you do not know where in Canada the divorce was started it states,

You can contact the Central Registry of Divorce:

Central Registry of Divorce Proceedings
Department of Justice
284 Wellington Street
Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H8
(613) 957-4519

Note however that the CRDP can only provide you with your divorce registry number and does not have copies of divorce certificates.


I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
