Pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements in Indonesia

Indonesian marriage, pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements function as written agreements between spouses to regulate the division of assets and obligations in the event of divorce or death. These two agreements offer certainty and protection for both parties in terms of finances and asset ownership.

The primary difference between a prenuptial agreement and a postnuptial agreement lies in the timing of their creation. A prenuptial agreement is signed before getting married or entering into a civil partnership.

It outlines the division of assets, property, debts, and other financial matters in the event of a divorce or separation. Prenuptial agreements are executed when the couple is still in the process of planning their marriage.

A postnuptial agreement, on the other hand, is similar to a prenuptial agreement but differs in the timing of its execution. Couples create a postnuptial agreement after they have already married or entered into a civil partnership.

Nonetheless, both agreements allow the couple to address the same issues as a prenup, such as the division of assets and finances. Regarding mortgages and property law, these agreements can have an impact on how property ownership and debts are treated during a divorce or separation. A well-drafted prenuptial or postnuptial agreement can clarify which properties are considered joint marital assets and which ones are separate property, and it can set forth the terms for handling any outstanding mortgages in case of a split. This can help avoid potential disputes and uncertainties in property division during divorce proceedings.
