The Separation and Distribution Agreement is a crucial legal document used in Malta when married couples decide to formally separate and divide their matrimonial assets. This document becomes necessary when spouses agree to live apart and need to formalize arrangements regarding property division, financial responsibilities, and ongoing obligations. It must comply with Malta's Civil Code and the Marriage Act, reflecting the jurisdiction's relatively recent introduction of divorce law in 2011. The agreement typically covers all aspects of the separation, including division of the matrimonial home, personal property, financial assets, and debts, as well as arrangements for any children if applicable. It serves as a legally binding document that can later be used as a basis for divorce proceedings under Maltese law, making it essential that it comprehensively addresses all relevant aspects of the separation while ensuring compliance with local legal requirements.
