For Ex Pats and in any case of an international divorce there are a number of challenges. Examples of such problems and issues that might arise where a party is overseas or is about to move overseas are as follows:
- The location of assets abroad
- The transfer of money or assets overseas
- Taxation issues
- Jurisdictional requirements for residence and divorce
- The relocation of children
- Not to mention the geographical differences involved and different time zones
