Marriage and Family Code: Chapter 3 (General Provisions) and Chapter 4 (Entering into Marriage)

Marriage is a voluntary union between a man and a woman in accordance with Art. 12. Under Art. 18, the legal age for marriage is 18, but it can be reduced by up to three years in case of pregnancy, childbirth, or if the person has reached full legal capacity. Such reduction is carried out based on the application of the person wishing to marry and the consent of a parent or guardian is not required.
