Greetings. I do not know anything about Guam divorces, as I am licensed in North Carolina. You will need to contact an attorney in Guam.
If you are asking if we recognize a divorce from Guam, that is another point all together. Thank you.

Hello. There are a lot of websites advertising quickie divorces and almost all seem to be dubious, to say least. However, the possibility of a Guam divorce is interesting to my wife and me. Here are the salient points. In your experience, can we be legally divorced this way?
Months ago, my wife and I completed a legal separation, simple, no kids, no disputes.
We have agreed that neither of us will contest a divorce and we both will sign legally binding documents to that effect.
Neither of us wants NC’s one-year waiting period to still hang over our heads as we are both in new romantic relationships.
I will soon be leaving NC and moving to Ohio. My girlfriend is an EU citizen and the easist way for her to immigrate is by marrying (which we want anyway).
A Guam legal firm says that in an UNCONTESTED divorce in which BOTH PARTIES waive the right to contest, there is no residency requirement.
Guam is a U.S. territory and ALLEGEDLY a legal decision made by a court there is recognized in any US state.
If we file for divorce in a Guam court, using a Guam attorney, and it is granted, are we then offically divorced? Thank you!
