What blocks matrimony is China's lack of democracy.

A foreign woman who contracts matrimony to a Mozambican can acquire Mozambican citizenship.

They can appeal before courts only on matters related to their matrimony should their marriage be official or legal.

The primary objective of this legislation is to prevent people entering into matrimony for the sole purpose of obtaining residence in the Netherlands.

Respondents were nearly evenly split on the question of arranged marriages, with half supporting the idea that marriage should be based on parental consent, while 48 preferred love as the basis of matrimony.

The marital status does not influence obtaining of citizenship except in the case when the citizenship is sought based on matrimony with a female or male citizen of BiH, in case of which there are no differences made on the basis of gender.
