Your “marital regime” is the matrimonial property system you and your spouse choose to apply to your assets and liabilities. You have three choices – in community of property, out of community of property with accrual, and out of community of property without accrual. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. As your choice will have major financial implications for you and for your family, you should – before you get married – consider it carefully with legal advice specific to your circumstances.
