Document background
A Non-Cohabitation Agreement is a specialized legal document used in Pakistan when two individuals need to formally establish their intention to maintain separate residences and financial independence. This type of agreement becomes particularly relevant in situations where parties need to clearly document their living arrangements for legal, professional, or personal reasons. The document typically includes detailed provisions about separate residences, property ownership, financial obligations, and dispute resolution mechanisms, all structured within the framework of Pakistani law. While less common in Pakistan's cultural context, such agreements can provide important legal protection and clarity for both parties, especially in professional or business relationships where clear boundaries need to be established. The agreement must be carefully drafted to ensure compliance with Pakistani legal requirements, including the Contract Act 1872 and relevant family law provisions, while remaining sensitive to local cultural and religious considerations.
