Document background
A Divorce Financial Consent Order is utilized when divorcing couples in Singapore have reached agreement on their financial matters and seek court approval to make their agreement legally binding. The document typically follows divorce proceedings and is submitted to the Family Justice Courts for approval. It comprehensively addresses the division of matrimonial assets including property, savings, investments, CPF accounts, and maintenance obligations. The order must comply with Singapore's Women's Charter and related legislation, and once approved, provides a clear framework for implementing the agreed financial arrangements and prevents future disputes.
