Pre-marriage negotiations; from the nature to the legal effect

Civil code and related Rules (in Iran) have not been substantially regarded pre-contract obligations and its multiple dimensions. Jurists also have not entered the discussion beyond the legal forum. The main issue in this regard is the nature of pre-marriage negotiations as well as its legal effect with regard to the conditions, prerequisites, obligatory conditions, the promise and the subject of the contract, along with the examples of pre-marital negotiations. Since the provisions of the pre-marriage negotiations do not have the same legal value and the guarantee of implementation depends on the manner in which the parties are interacting, the nature of each case should be observed. In addition to observing the position of the parties, the effect of the conditions on the continuity of the contract is determined independently. Therefore, in case of violation against the provisions of the pre-marriage negotiation, performance guarantees such as validity of contract, right of cancellation of marriage and dissolution can be implementing.
