Second, what are the conditions for marriage?

(1) Both men and women are completely voluntary. The Civil Code stipulates that "marriage must be completely voluntary by both men and women, and neither party is allowed to force the other, nor is any third party allowed to interfere." This is the concrete expression of the principle of freedom of marriage on the issue of marriage. The completely voluntary demand of both men and women means that both men and women are voluntary, not wishful thinking; Men and women are voluntary, not necessarily with the consent of their parents or a third party; Both men and women are completely voluntary, not reluctantly agreed.

(2) reaching the legal age for marriage. The legal age for marriage refers to the minimum age for marriage stipulated by law. The Civil Code stipulates that "the age of marriage shall not be earlier than 22 for men and 20 for women". Compared with contemporary foreign legislation, the legal age of marriage in China is higher, which is determined by China's current national conditions. After reaching the legal age for marriage, both men and women have the right to decide whether and when to get married. It can be seen that compared with the forced marriage system of forced early marriage in ancient China, the current marriage law in China is a marriage license system that advocates late marriage.

(3) Conforming to the principle of monogamy. According to the principle of monogamy, both parties who apply for marriage need the original spouse, only unmarried, widowed or divorced. A man and a woman violate the union of monogamy and have no legal effect of marriage.
