3. The court decision shall be registered in the Local Civil Registry Office.

thank you for sharing this info, so it means to say, tama lahat ang sinabi samin sa seminar although, alam naman natin na sa pinas talagang walang divorce.ang meron lang satin is legal separation or annulment pero di ganon kadali ang pag process kase it takes a long time.and one more thing,kahit po divorce na kayo dito,di ibig sabihin na divorce na din kayo sa pinas,kase, kailangan n'yo munang mag hintay ng 5-8 years bago ulit kayo makapag pakasal sa pinas.yun po ang sabi samin sa seminar and according to my sister experience.
