First, the provisions of the Marriage Smoke Law on the return of bride price

According to China's marriage law, whether the bride price can be returned depends on the marital relationship between men and women.

If a bride price is given, but neither man nor woman has entered into a marriage relationship, the woman needs to return the bride price to the man. If the wedding is only held according to the custom, but the marriage certificate is not obtained, in principle, the bride price will not be refunded. Married, except in special circumstances, the bride price is not refundable.

2. Will the bride price be refunded after one year of marriage?

Whether the man gives a bride price before marriage or divorces one year after marriage depends on the actual situation and nature of both men and women to make a request to support the return of the bride price, which is specifically handled by the court.

Generally, the bride price for divorce after marriage is not returned, unless the husband's family considers returning it as appropriate because of the difficulties in paying the bride price, which is also a special case of returning the bride price.

Third, the statute of limitations for returning the bride price.

The return of the bride price money is also statute of limitations, that is, two years.

According to China's "Marriage Smoke Law", when a man and a woman get married, it is justified for the man to pay the woman a certain wedding bride price and then ask for the return of the bride price, but it does not depend on how long after marriage, but on the actual situation of both men and women.
