Abstract

Marriage is the establishment of a legal relationship between two partners to achieve the purpose of uniting their life economically and emotionally. From this perspective, marriage is a complex issue which is related to human rights and civil rights under international treaties. Therefore, in the progress of the current migration and globalization, marriage is not only limited within a sovereign of a country, but also expands internationally in which partners are of different nationalities, the place of domicile and even the place of marriage celebration. At present, the number of marriages with foreign elements have gradually increased. Therefore, a comprehensive legal framework in every countryshould be established to solve conflicts of rules among national laws. Through surveys, doctrinal and comparison in legal research, this article will elaborate on marriage in private international law under Vietnamese laws and other legal systems in the world.
