Irish vital records...

[Tina and Johan 206]

good morning. I'm curious about something. I know the US has specific official divorce documents that can be ordered from your state's vital records offices, but I'm wondering, what about Ireland? I'm not seeing anything on the internet for this, and very new to the K-1 visa process, I'm worried that the divorce documents we each sent in won't be accepted. They were the actual divorce papers that the judge signed (His Irish, mine from Michigan), but not an official certificate like a birth or death cert. Is this all we need? I know that if I was getting married in another country, I'd need a cert with a special seal, so these papers seem like they won't cut it. What did you all previously married people use? Thanks in advance!

The order signed by the judge is what you want - just make sure it's also signed by the Clerk of Court (or someone equivalent) which indicates that it's been entered into the public record.
