The Philippines is the ONLY country in the world (apart from the Vatican) that does not recognize divorce. There have been some attempts to make divorce legal but they have all failed and it is unlikely to happen anytime soon.
Girls who are married cannot divorce if they are still in the Philippines – their only hope is an Annulment which is very expensive (about 10 times the cost of divorce), takes many years, instead of a few months, and often fails as judges frequently throw out the cases.
BUT – If you are living or working in HONG KONG you CAN get divorced – quickly and cheaply. Your divorce is LEGAL and recognized everywhere in the world (except the Philippines).

Points you must note:
As the divorce is not recognized in the Philippines you cannot register it there. Your records at the PSA will not change, and you cannot change your passport to take out your Husband’s name. But this does not stop you from Marrying again in Hong Kong or elsewhere and starting your new life in a new country.
