- Abstract
Since one of the principles of family is its social protection, the reduction in the number of divorces in every country is of an essential importance. The republic of Macedonia belongs to the group of countries where the number of divorces is in a continuous increase, and the number of concluded marriages is in a gradual decrease. The grounds for divorce are different, and there are also differences in the regulation of the grounds for divorce. Divorce by mutual consent is accepted by most legislatures, but there are differences in the treatment of the consequences caused by it. The author of this text takes an insight in the legislation for divorce by mutual consent of the spouses within comparative law. If we take into consideration the comparative reforms, it is easy to notice that some legislatures have taken one step further in the regulation of divorce by mutual consent. We can also notice that in The Republic of Macedonia some matters, considering the divorce by mutual consent, are not included in the regulation, but now there are proper conditions created for them to be regulated. Changes are essential in the regulation of divorce by mutual consent which should refer especially to the conditions of the submission of the joint application for divorce and the consequences of the divorce. For this cause, comparative law's solutions are presented so that a conclusion can be made on whether our country is ready to act in accordance with comparative solutions, and for which solutions there are conditions and needs to be implemented in the Republic of Macedonia.
