Document background
The Mutual Separation Agreement Marriage is a crucial document used in Singapore when married couples decide to formally separate while ensuring their rights and obligations are clearly defined. This agreement, which must comply with Singapore's Women's Charter and related legislation, is typically executed before proceeding with divorce proceedings. It comprehensively addresses key aspects such as division of matrimonial assets, maintenance arrangements, living arrangements, and where relevant, child custody matters. The document provides clarity and certainty for both parties while potentially simplifying any subsequent divorce proceedings. It's particularly useful for couples who have reached amicable decisions about their separation and wish to document their arrangements formally.
