Marriage conditions

With no fuss, just through Francenotary.

Are your prenuptial agreements also satisfactory in France?

In the prenuptial agreement, you regulate what belongs to whom. You then regulate what belongs to whom. But what about when you have to deal with French law? Do your terms work there too?

We will be happy to help you establish your prenuptial agreement legally in France as well. This is certainly wise in situations such as:

  • high financial inequality between partners

  • debts of one of the partners

  • desire to remain financially independent

  • business risks of one of the spouses

  • protection of family assets (such as inheritances or gifts)

  • protection of children from a previous marriage

  • property or interests abroad (such as a property in France)

How does that work legally in France?

France has a different system. There is no automatic 'standard system' like in the Netherlands. That means you have to actively arrange yourself how your assets are divided and who is entitled to what.

The good news: in France - as in the Netherlands - you can lay everything down in prenuptial agreements. But beware: these must comply with French legal requirements. We make sure your agreements are also properly translated into French.
