BEFORE THE MARRIAGE REGISTER IS SIGNED YOU HAVE TO SIGN THE ANTENUPTIAL CONTRACT OR YOUR MARRIAGE WILL BE REGISTERED AS A MARRIAGE IN COMMUNITY OF PROPERTY!!!!

ANTENUPTIAL CONTRACTS

You met your perfect match and are planning on getting married. Whether you choose to have a wedding ceremony or simply register your marriage without a ceremony , you need to get an Antenuptial Contract before you register your marriage. The first step on the road to living happily ever after, is getting legal advice and signing the Antenuptial Contract.Good advice and a well drafted ANC is a small price to pay at the start of your marriage and can save you thousands in litigation ...and medication to avoid the headache of a poorly planned and drafted Antenuptial Contract later on in life.

REMEMBER IT IS A LEGAL REQUIREMENT THAT THE ANC IS SIGNED IN THE PRESENCE OF A NOTARY PUBLIC AND IT IS BEST YOU SIGN IT YOURSELF AND NOT GIVE SOMEONE ELSE POWER OF ATTORNEY TO SIGN ON YOUR BEHALF.

In South African marriages , your choice of marital regimes are:

IN COMMUNITY OF PROPERTY.

OUT OF COMMUNITY OF PROPERTY WITH ACCRUAL.

OUT OF COMMUNITY OF PROPERTY WITHOUT ACCRUAL.
