Marriage Tribunal

MARRIAGE NULLITY 

In 1986 each constituent diocese opened its own Tribunal office to better facilitate those who wished to apply (petition) for a declaration of nullity. If a petition is accepted the necessary investigations are usually made through each diocesan office. 

Part of the Church’s teaching on marriage is that a valid, sacramental and consummated union is, by its very nature, indissoluble.  If consent to marriage is flawed then a question may arise as to the validity of the marriage itself. The Armagh Regional Marriage Tribunal is established to deal specifically with this kind of question or doubt about a marriage.

If you wish to make a petition for a declaration of nullity or obtain further information please contact your local priest or the Tribunal Office.

Welcome to the website of the Archdiocese of Armagh.

Our diocese of sixty-one parishes, from four counties, North and South of the Border, is knitted together closely to form the historic local Church of Armagh. As a diocese we seek not only to be faithful to the message of Jesus Christ himself, but also to embrace the challenges of the present and to look forward with confidence to the opportunities of the future. We strive to do this primarily by reflecting the healing love of Christ and the Truth of his Gospel through the ministry of his Church in the various parishes and pastoral agencies you will find outlined in this website.

I pray that visitors to this site may find the information it contains, the aspirations and resources it promotes, useful in helping to understand the mission of the Archdiocese of Armagh in building up the Kingdom of God in the twenty-first century.

We place it under the protection of Mary, Mother of the Church, who advised us to do whatever her son, Jesus, tells us. We invoke the help of the Patron Saints of the diocese, Patrick  and  Brigid, Malachy and Moninne  and the martyrs, Oliver Plunkett and Patrick O'Loughran,  that this website may prove to be of great help to all who strive to follow Christ faithfully.
