Under New Zealand Family Law the only grounds for dissolving a marriage are that you have been separated for two years. There are no other ways to dissolve the marriage

You can leave whenever you want-its just the two years before you can apply for dissolution. It does not matter where you were married, as the New Zealand Family Court will recognise the marriage
Chris The Lawyer, Expert
When you file the application, you file an affidavit which says when you separated. That is all the evidence you need, and the dissolution is made on the papers filed, and you do not need to go to court
