Iintlobo ezi-3 zoMtshato oSemthethweni eMzantsi Afrika: Oko Kufuneka Izibini Zikwazi

Xa abantu besiya emtshatweni, kubalulekile ukuba baqonde kakuhle into abazibophelela kuyo kunye neendlela ezikhoyo ngokomthetho.

Inqaku le-BONA (https://www.bona.co.za/lifestyle/3-types-of-marriages-in-south-africa/) ligxininisa ukuba izibini ezininzi zigxila “kusuku olukhulu” zilibale izinto ezisemqoka zomthetho.

Ngokwe Department of Home Affairs, kukho iintlobo ezintathu zomtshato ezisemthethweni eMzantsi Afrika, kwaye ezi nkcukacha zixhaswa nangu Gunston Strandvik Mlambo Attorneys.

Umtshato wesintu uchazwa njengomtshato “othethathethwano, obhiyozelwayo okanye ogqitywa ngokwenkqubo yomthetho wesintu waseAfrika okhoyo eMzantsi Afrika.”

Le nkcazo ayibandakanyi imitshato yamaHindu, amaSilamsi, okanye eminye imisitho yenkolo.

Kwiimfuno zomtshato wesintu, inqaku lichaza ukuba ukuze wamkelwe njengosemthethweni kufuneka ukuba wangena kuwo ngaphambi komhla we-15 Novemba 2000.

Ukuba ungene kuwo emva kwalo mhla, kufuneka uhambelane nemiqathango: ulandele umthetho wesintu, amaqabane omabini abe ngaphezu kweminyaka eyi-18, kwaye omabini avume ngokupheleleyo.

ICivil Union Act yona ithi umntu angatshata nabani na nokuba lithini uqhelaniso lwakhe lwesondo, kusetyenziswa i-civil union, i-civil marriage okanye umtshato wesintu.

Ii-civil union zinokwenziwa ngamagosa omtshato achongiweyo enkonzo yenkolo okanye umbutho othile, kwakunye namagosa eDepartment of Home Affairs neMagistrates’ Courts.

UGunston kunye noStrandvik Mlambo Attorneys bachaza i-civil marriage njengomtshato phakathi kwendoda nomfazi, nowona uqhelekileyo eMzansi.

Lo mtshato unokuba ngaphandle kwe-community of property, ngaphandle kwe-community of property with accrual, okanye ngokuzenzekelayo ube kwi-community of property xa kungekho ante-nuptial contract ibekiweyo.
