Abstract :
Under the influence of important political changes that occurred in Albania after 1990, the number of international marriages in our country increased rapidly. Globalization and movement of individuals and families across national borders have leaded into conflict of laws with respect to marriage in different jurisdictions. This social reality brings a series of problems related to the definition of substantive legislation applicable to spouses personal and property relations. In this regard, there is a crucial need to study and take in analysis the legal framework which defines the forum2 that governs marriage contract and matrimonial regimes in general, in case of marriages with foreign elements. The latest legal amendments on private international law of Albania, specifically, law no. 10428/02.06.2011 On Private International Law, brought important novelties with regard to rules for defining the applicable law on matrimonial property regimes, as well as regards to party autonomy on the choice of applicable law that governs marriage contract. The aim of this paper is to provide a brief overview of the regulation that Albanian Family Code provides on matrimonial property regimes, marriage contract, together with an analysis of provisions that Albania Private International Law makes on marriage contracts in the case of international marriages.
