If you got married through a Montana proxy marriage service while stationed overseas or during deployment, you can end that marriage through Montana courts — without ever setting foot in the state.

Montana is one of the few states that allows double proxy marriage, where neither party needs to be physically present. This made it popular with military members who needed to get married quickly for benefits, housing, or deployment reasons. Now, when those marriages need to end, Montana courts can handle the dissolution just as easily.

Two Options: Annulment or Divorce

We offer two ways to end your Montana proxy marriage. Both are handled the same way, cost the same ($1,998), and result in a court decree that legally ends your marriage.

Annulment

Declares the marriage invalid from the start — legally like it never happened.

Requires:

  • Misrepresentation before marriage
  • File within 2 years of discovery
  • Both parties sign

Divorce

Traditional divorce. No time limit, no misrepresentation needed.

Requires:

  • Both parties sign
  • Assets under $50,000
  • No jointly-owned real estate

Why Montana Courts Can Do This

Montana has become the go-to state for ending proxy marriages for several important reasons:

  • Jurisdiction: If your marriage was formed in Montana, Montana courts have jurisdiction to dissolve it
  • No residency requirement: For proxy marriages formed in Montana, neither spouse needs to be a Montana resident to file
  • Remote process: Everything can be handled by mail and online — perfect for deployed service members

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Montana allows military members to file for divorce or annulment regardless of where they are stationed. The entire process is handled remotely — you never need to travel to Montana. This works from Germany, Korea, Japan, Italy, or any other duty station worldwide.

Most military divorces take 2-4 months from payment to final decree. The timeline can vary based on how quickly both parties sign and return paperwork, but our process is designed to work around deployment schedules and PCS moves.

Yes. Dual-military couples can use our service. Since everything is handled remotely, both service members can complete the paperwork from their respective duty stations, even if stationed in different countries.

Most deployed locations have access to a notary through the JAG office or command. If not, we can pause your case until you return from deployment or rotate to a location with notary services. Contact us and we'll work with your situation.

We don't notify your command — that's your responsibility. However, you will need to update your marital status with your unit's admin office after receiving your decree to ensure your BAH, benefits, and records are updated correctly.

The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) lets active duty members postpone court proceedings when military duties get in the way. Because our process is uncontested — both spouses agree and sign — SCRA delays almost never come up. If your spouse won't agree to sign, our uncontested process isn't a fit and SCRA could become a factor.
