A: What is it you think you need to register? The marriage? If so, you are misinformed. If you were legally married in Jamacia and you meet the eligibility requirements for divorce in NC then you can certianly get divorced in NC. Further if your spouse is cooperative with you and wants the divorce as well it is relatively inexpensive - $395 covers everything for a standard uncontested divorce.
