Does Uncontested Divorce Work the Same in Travis County?
Yes. An uncontested divorce in Travis County follows the same legal requirements as anywhere else in Texas:
- Texas residency and venue requirements must be met

- A final decree must be approved by a judge
Travis County cases are filed through the district clerk and assigned to a district court. While Texas law controls the substance of the divorce, county-level practices can affect timing and procedure.
