[D182] REQUIREMENTS FOR A VALID ANTE-NUPTIAL CONTRACT | SOUTH AFRICA

Both Prenuptial and Antenuptial agreements govern the marital property regime prevailing between spouses in a valid marriage. While in South Africa the most used term is Antenuptial Contract/Agreement, the term Prenuptial Contract is most often used in the United States and other jurisdictions.
As alluded to above the primary purpose of antenuptial contracts are to bring certainty with regards to the matrimonial property system that spouses in a valid marriage prefer.
Besides certainty antenuptial contracts bring legal effect to matrimonial property regimes and this is crucial with regards to entering contracts, as well as in the event of divorce, maintenance, and devolution of deceased estates.
The concept of an antenuptial contract is not foreign to couples about to enter a marriage. The consequences of not registering an antenuptial contract, or the unintended consequences of registering an antenuptial contract, but not setting out the intention of the parties, are, however, not always clear cut.

I payed all my lobola and got welcomed by my in-laws prior making signing the antineptual. I then signed the signed the antineptual months later, actually a day before I got married by a priest. Is the antineptual valid or is my marriage deemed ICP?
