1、 What is the legal age for marriage for girls
Twenty years old. The legal age for marriage refers to the minimum age for marriage as stipulated by law. That is to say, both men and women cannot get married before reaching this age, and only those who reach or exceed this age can get married. As for the maximum age for marriage, there is no limit.
The legal marriage age of 22 for men and 20 for women, as determined by law, takes into account both the physical and mental development of young men and women, as well as the national population control and the acceptance of urban and rural residents, which is in line with China's national conditions.
