3. Is separation for two years an automatic dissolution of marriage?

The answer is no, at present, there are only two ways to divorce in China: to register for divorce at the marriage registration office of the civil affairs department, or to file a divorce lawsuit with the people's court with jurisdiction. This is different from the separation system of husband and wife in some foreign countries (some countries call it separation system). For example, in Britain, there are two ways of separation: separation by agreement and separation by court. During the period of separation, both parties agreed on the disposal of children's property. In our country, separation for two years is only a way to judge whether the relationship between husband and wife has broken down. After the divorce without legal procedures, the marriage relationship between the two parties still exists. During the marriage relationship, if either party marries a third party, it constitutes bigamy.
