What are the matrimonial property agreements?
The matrimonial property agreement is the contract by which the spouses establish the rules that will govern the economic aspect of the marriage. The content of the matrimonial property agreement is very varied, although the most common is the choice of the matrimonial property regime.
In areas where ordinary law applies and in the absence of a marriage contract, the matrimonial property regime applies to the marriage. If you want to change this regime, you can sign a marriage contract before a notary, which will allow you to choose the matrimonial property regime of your choice. You can do this at any time: before or after the marriage.
In order to be valid, they must be made in a public deed, with the impartial advice of the notary who must indicate the most suitable way to reflect the will of the spouses and also the limits set by law.
How are the marriage contracts formalised?
In order for the marriage contracts to be valid, they must be made in a public deed before a notary.
Subsequently, they must be registered in the Civil Register, together with the registration of the marriage celebrated, so that they can be effective against third parties.
