The divorce process in Pakistan varies depending on whether it is initiated by the husband or wife:
For Husbands: The husband can pronounce Talaq (divorce) and must file a written notice with the Union Council or local arbitration council. Notices are then sent to the wife.
For Wives (Khula): A wife can file for Khula (dissolution of marriage) through the Family Court, citing valid reasons for separation.
Khula is the process by which a wife seeks a dissolution of marriage through a Family Court. Unlike divorce (Talaq), which is initiated by the husband, Khula requires the wife's request and often involves returning the Mahr (dower) to the husband as part of the settlement.
The required documents include:
Marriage certificate (Nikah Nama).
CNIC copies of both parties.
Recent photographs.
Proof of residence.
Any evidence supporting grounds for Khula (if applicable).

Mental or physical incompatibility.
Any other valid reason recognized by Islamic and Pakistani law.
