Question:
A person registers his marriage with the Home Affairs , not knowing that the estate of himself and his wife will now automatically become a joint estate- in community of property-
He would now like to resolve this issue.
There are two avenues available legally.
Option 1- A High Court application to change his matrimonial property regime to Ante Nuptial Contract without accrual. This is possible, but it is very expensive.(it can cost around R40 000).
