Trouwen en huwelijkse voorwaarden bij de notaris
Drawing up a prenuptial agreement ensures that you deviate from the legally regulated limited community of property. In the Netherlands, when you get married you marry in a limited community of property. This means that everything that was private before the marriage remains private and everything acquired during the marriage becomes common.
If you don't want to marry in this limited community of property, you can get a prenuptial agreement from Marks Wachters notarissen.
About prenuptial agreements
Wil je afwijken van de beperkte gemeenschap van goederen? Laat dan vóórdat je gaat trouwen huwelijkse voorwaarden opmaken. In deze voorwaarden kun je vele vermogensrechtelijke regelingen treffen. Welke regelingen dit zijn, is afhankelijk van de situatie van jou en je partner. Voor huwelijkse voorwaarden schakel je een notaris in: de notaris legt de afspraken officieel vast. Indien je zelf met je partner een lijstje met afspraken maakt, bent je samen wel aan deze afspraak gebonden, maar derden niet.
Third parties may assume that you are then married under the law in limited community of property. This can cause problems in certain situations. It is advisable to discuss with your partner which conditions you would like to include before sitting down with the notary.
Why draw up prenuptial agreements?
There are several reasons to draw up prenuptial agreements:
- By creating prenuptial agreements, you can keep the assets of both spouses-to-be separate;
- You can also keep gifts and inheritances received in the past private with the creation of prenuptial agreements;
- You can leave the business risk of a business in the name of one of the spouses-to-be with that spouse;
- If you are marrying for the second time, prenuptial agreements are also often recommended.
Even if you are already married, it is still possible to have prenuptial agreements drawn up. Please contact us.
Cancel or modify marital agreements
You can choose to dissolve the existing conditions, so that you are now married in the legal limited community of property or, on the contrary, in the wider general community of property under which all assets and debts are included.
It is also possible to change the content of your conditions. All of these changes require the cooperation of both spouses. Also, when changing from a community to a prenuptial agreement, both spouses must sign a statement that by establishing the prenuptial agreement, the creditors of the community will not be harmed.
