Everything You Need to Know About Antenuptial Contracts.
When you’re preparing for marriage, it’s natural to focus on the joyous aspects—the love, the celebration, and the future together. However, considering an Antenuptial Contract (ANC) is a responsible step that can protect both you and your partner. Let’s break it down:
What Is an Antenuptial Contract?
An Antenuptial Contract, also known as a prenuptial agreement, is a legal document that defines how your assets and liabilities will be handled during your marriage.
It’s like setting the ground rules for your financial journey together.
Why Consider an Antenuptial Contract?
Asset Protection:
With an ANC, you can keep your individual assets separate. What’s yours remains yours, and what’s theirs remains theirs.
This is especially important if you have existing assets, like a business or property.
Liability Shield:
An ANC shields you from your partner’s debts. You won’t automatically inherit their financial obligations.
Family Considerations:
If you have children from previous relationships, an ANC ensures their inheritance rights are safeguarded.
It provides clarity on how your estate will be divided in case of divorce or death.
Types of Marital Regimes:
In Community of Property (ICOP):
Default regime if you don’t sign an ANC.
All assets and debts acquired during the marriage are jointly owned.
Shared equally by both spouses.
Out of Community of Property (OCOP):
Opt for this regime by signing an ANC before marriage.
Assets and liabilities remain separate.
Each spouse maintains individual ownership.
How to Approach the Topic with Your Partner:
Open Communication:
Discuss your financial expectations openly.
Understand each other’s views on asset management.
Seek Legal Advice:
Consult a Notary or attorney to draft your ANC.
Ensure it aligns with your wishes and protects both of you.
Remember, an ANC isn’t about planning for the end—it’s about planning for a secure and respectful partnership. Approach it with care, and it can strengthen your bond.

What Is an Antenuptial Contract?
An antenuptial agreement, commonly known as a prenuptial agreement, is a legal contract couples enter before marriage. It serves as a crucial tool for defining each spouse's financial and property rights during their marriage and in the event of divorce or the death of one of the partners.
Key Points about Antenuptial Contracts:
Marriage Out of Community of Property:
An antenuptial contract allows couples to choose a marriage regime other than the default "in community of property". By default, when couples marry without an antenuptial contract, they are automatically married in community of property. This means that both spouses jointly own all assets and liabilities acquired before and during the marriage.
Opting for an antenuptial contract allows couples to keep their financial affairs separate. Each spouse retains ownership of their own assets and debts, and they do not share in each other's property.
Customisation and Flexibility:
Couples can tailor the terms of their antenuptial contract to suit their specific needs and circumstances. They can specify how assets, debts, and income will be managed during the marriage.
For example, if one spouse owns a business, they can protect it by excluding it from the joint estate. Similarly, if there are children from previous marriages, an antenuptial contract can ensure that their inheritance rights are safeguarded.
Freedom to Trade and Conduct Business:
An antenuptial contract provides the freedom for each spouse to engage in trade, business, and financial transactions independently. It allows them to manage their own assets, enter into contracts, and make investment decisions without the need for joint consent.
This is particularly important for entrepreneurs, professionals, and individuals with existing businesses or investment portfolios.
Legal Formalities:
An antenuptial contract must be drawn up by a qualified attorney and signed by both parties before the marriage ceremony.
It is then registered at the Deeds Office to make it legally binding.
Why Is an Antenuptial Agreement Important?
Asset Protection:
If one or both spouses have significant assets (such as property, investments, or businesses), an antenuptial contract ensures these assets remain separate and protected.
It prevents the automatic sharing of assets and liabilities that occurs in community of property marriages.
Debt Protection:
An antenuptial contract shields each spouse from the other's debts. If one spouse accumulates debt during the marriage, it does not automatically become the responsibility of the other.
Family Obligations:
An antenuptial contract can safeguard their inheritance rights if either spouse has children from a previous relationship. It ensures that their share of the estate is preserved, even if the marriage ends.
Clarity and Transparency:
Having a clear and legally binding agreement in place reduces misunderstandings and potential disputes during the marriage.
Both spouses know their rights and responsibilities, promoting transparency and trust.
In summary, an antenuptial contract provides couples with the freedom to define their financial arrangements according to their unique circumstances. It empowers them to protect their assets, manage their debts, and plan for the future, ensuring a more secure and harmonious marriage.
