There is a specific Divorce Court in Kunming - it has a small simple office adjacent. You will need both marriage books to submit in application plus 50 RMB (I think). Then, there is a long wait (perhaps, 2 months) before you are called back to the court. Initially, the administrator's job is an attempt for you to rethink your decision - once it is obvious that a divorce is inevitable, the divorce is given.

Of course, if a fight related to assets or child support is involved then you'll need a good lawyer. In which case it may be best to leave China ....
