An annulment is a legal procedure that invalidates and legally erases a marriage. This is in contrast to a divorce which simply dissolves a marriage.
An annulment typically occurs if the marriage breaks religious or state rules, depending on the type of marriage. Grounds for an annulment will vary depending on your country of residence, religion and other case-by-case factors.
Reasons for getting an annulment may include the following:
Either party can initiate an annulment, but they must have sufficient evidence for a case.
A divorce, on the other hand, returns each member of a couple back to being single, but the marriage is still legally recognised as having happened.
