Globalization, migration, and free movement have led to an increase in the diversity of international and inter-faith couples, and implicitly to an increase in the number of divorces with cross border elements. Although there are numerous regulations at European Union level, when it comes to international couples formed from an EU-citizen and a non-EU/third country one, for the purpose of this study Romanian, respectively Egyptian, there seems to be a lack of guidelines and cooperation mechanisms, ensuring the protection and enforcement of basic human rights. The main purposes of this study is examining in a comparative manner the divorce systems in Egypt and Romania and trying to answer the question of whether the differences are rooted in religion or are the result of different social, economic, cultural, and historical factors.
