How soon after getting divorced in Iowa can you get remarried?

This from the website usmarriagelaws.com (bold added for emphasis)..."Prior to 7/1/76, Iowa law provided that neither party to a decree of dissolution of marriage (or divorce) shall remarry within one year from the date of filing of the decree unless permission to do so was granted by the court in such decree. However, a marriage entered into in Iowa within the restricted period without permission of the court is a misdemeanor only and the marriage is merely voidable and not void. A marriage entered into outside of Iowa within the restricted period is valid in the State of remarriage and in Iowa since the restriction has no extraterritorial effect. After 7/1/76, there are no restrictions against remarriage following a decree of dissolution of marriage."You will have to wait for one full year, after your divorce to remarry in the state of Iowa.
