Declaration of Nullity of Marriage
6,115 viewsThis procedure is normally overshadowed by the popularity of annulment of marriage. Some even confuse the two procedures as the same.
What is Declaration of Nullity of Marriage?
Declaration of nullity is a decree from the Court wherein a marriage is declared void or not valid from the beginning.
What is the difference between Declaration of Nullity of Marriage and Annulment of Marriage?
Declaration of Nullity covers void marriages while annulment deals only with voidable marriages. A void marriage means it does not exist from the start or its inception while a voidable marriage means that the marriage is valid until terminated by the court.
What are the grounds for the declaration of Nullity of Marriage?
The grounds can be found in several provisions of the Family Code. These are Articles 4, 35, 36, 37, 38, 40, 41, 44 and 53 in relation to Article 52 of the Family Code.
What does Article 4 of the Family Code say?
This article says that the absence of any of the essential or formal requisites of marriage shall render such marriage void from the start, except as stated in Article 35 (2).
What does Article 35 of the Family Code say?
This article enumerates marriages considered void from the beginning, these are:
1. Those contracted by any party below 18 even with the consent of parents or guardians.
2. Those solemnized by any person not legally authorized to perform marriages unless such marriages were contracted with either or both parties believing in good faith that the solemnizing officer had the legal authority to do so.
3. Marriages solemnized without a license, except those marriages exempt from license.
4. Bigamous or polygamous marriages except in cases of valid bigamous marriage under Article 41.
5. Those contracted through mistake of one contracting party as to the identity of the other.
6. Subsequent marriages that are void under Article 53.
How about Article 36?
This article defines “psychological incapacity”. This article says that a marriage contracted by any party who, at the time of celebration, was psychologically incapacitated to comply with the essential marital obligations of marriage shall also be void even if such incapacity becomes manifest only after the celebration of marriage.
What does Article 37 of the Family Code say?
This article refers to incestuous marriages. It provides that marriages between
1. Ascendants and descendants of any degree; and
2. Between brothers and sisters, whether of full or half blood
Shall be void from the beginning, whether the relationship between the parties be legitimate or illegitimate
What does Article 38 provide?
This article enumerates the type of marriages that are void for reasons of public policy:
1. Between collateral blood relatives, whether legitimate or illegitimate, up to the fourth civil degree
2. Between step-parents and step-children
3. Between parents-in-law and children-in-law
4. Between the adopting parent and the adopted child
5. Between the surviving spouse of the adopting parents and the adopted child
6. Between the surviving spouse of the adopted child and the adopter
7. Between an adopted child and a legitimate child of the adopter
8. Between the adopted children of the same adopter
9. Between parties where one, with the intent to marry the other killed that other person’s spouse or his or her own spouse.
What does Article 40 say?
It says that subsequent marriage without judicial declaration of nullity of the previous marriage is in itself void from the start. Thus even if your previous marriage is void, you cannot enter into a subsequent marriage without a prior court declaration that your marriage is void, if you do so without such court declaration, your next marriage will also be void.
How about Article 41?
It provides that a marriage contracted by any person during the subsistence of a previous marriage shall be null and void unless before the celebration of the subsequent marriage, the prior spouse had been absent for four consecutive years and the spouse present had a well-founded belief that the absent spouse was already dead.
What does Article 44 provide?
It says that if both spouses of the subsequent marriage acted in bad faith, said marriage shall be void from the start. This means that if only one spouse is in bad faith, the marriage shall still be valid since the law requires that both spouses be in bad faith in order for the marriage to be declared void.
What does Article 53 say regarding void marriage?
This article of the law says that if there is no compliance with the requirements of Article 52 of the Family Code, the subsequent marriage shall be null and void.
Is it possible that some of these grounds co-exist with the other?
Yes, it may happen. For example a person may claim that his or her marriage is void because consent was given not in the presence of the solemnizing officer but through the use of proxies and that the other party was psychologically incapacitated during the celebration of marriage.

hi marissa,
you entered into a second marriage while your first marriage is still subsisting. in this case, the law will treat it as a bigamous marriage. what is needed here is a petition for the declaration of the nullity of your second marriage on the basis of the valid and still existing first marriage.
hi Atty. James Biron,
good day po…ask ko lang po kung pano mag file ng declaration of nullity kailangan ko po ba mag hired ng lawyer for that? and how much po kaya magagastos ko? and also atty: kailangan ko po ba hintayin ung divorce paper ko na dumating bago po namin i filed ung declaration of nullity? kasi on process na po ung divorce paper ko kaso po it takes 6 months bago po matapos…please atty: give me some advice salamat po…:)
hi marissa,
yes you need a lawyer to do this for you. the price/cost will depend on the lawyer you will hire. regarding you question as to whether you should wait for the outcome of the divorce proceedings, well this depends on you. because whether you wait or not, your second marriage is already considered void under our laws.
ok atty: THANK YOU PO…:)
Good Day Atty.,
How to nullify the void bigamous marriage? Is it possible for the affected party to re-marry in Phils to a foreign national even before the nullification of the bigamous marriage?
Good day Rizza,
Get a lawyer to file a petition for the declaration of nullity in court. You cannot re-marry prior to the declaration of nullity of the bigamous marriage.
Hi Atty,
Thanks for your advise, how long will be the process & what would be the necessary requirements to prove that the early marriage is bigamous. Is there a way to speed up the process?
Thank you & Godbless.
Hi Rizza,
You’re welcome. It would take some time and there’s no definite time as to how long it would take. In order to speed it up, don’t ask for postponements
You must show that there was a prior subsisting marriage when you entered into the second marriage. Produce all the documents to show proof of these marriages.
Hello Atty,
I was married at the age of 19 years old and made to change my birthdate and produce some fake birth certificates on that time. However, after several months we were remarried again at the church using reference on our earlier civil marriage.
Am I still possible to apply for the Nullity of Marriage since we were already separated for about about 5 years already.
Hoping for your kind attention and advice.
Thank you very much po!

Hi Gemma, please post your question at the forum section of this website. Thank you.
good day!
i was married in June 14, 2004 at Quezon City… recently i was reading the family code and while i was going thru it i saw that one of the requirements in getting married is to have a marriage license and the requirements needed in applying for one. i never filed for a marriage license but in my marriage certificate a marriage license number appears in it and it states there that the license was released on the same day we were married. All i remember was when i was brought to Quezon City hall on the said date i was asked to fill up a blank form and then we were led to another building outside QC hall and a solemnizing officer officiated our civil wedding. is my marriage considered void? since we did not follow the normal procedure in getting a marriage license (none of those requirements for marriage license were submitted). i hope u can advice and help me with this matter… thanks.

Atty, good day, I am an OFW and working abroad for 8 years now. My wife is seeking to end up our marriage because he is sick and tired with our relationship. His ground was that our marriage is fake and not valid because she was below 18 at the time our marriage celebration was made. She has a boyfriend she choose to live-in since year 2004 and they are living until now. But i did not fail to support my kids until now since that is my own obligation.
What are the legal grounds i should file to annul our marriage?
Dear Atty Biron,
I am new to your site and it happened that i was searching for possibility of declaration of nullity of marriage.
I have been married sometime last March 1995, and since then in good faith believes that i marry the right man. One day i realized that the man i marry did not declare his birth name instead use other name for me in our marriage. Why i knew his real name? because his cousin ask me about him using other name. And i asked her who is that person your naming to me? And then she said, dont you know the name of your husband? So i did not question more instead i just say ok…he is ok. Even before our marriage my ex-husband has already been making problems to me. Never stop womanizing and cheating me as well. He doesnt care support the kids. Even when i was pregnant with our 3rd baby he did not care bring me to hospital knowing that i will deliver on caesarian delivery. I went to hospital by myself and thanks God was able to deliver my 3rd baby successfully thought caesarian. We have 3 kids and he doesnt care give support to the kids. Atty. I want to get rid of his name in me. What will i do? Do i have to get annulment or Just declaration of nullity of marriage since my ex-husband uses other name in our marriage. We were marriage in civil and church. I went to a lawyer for my desire to get annulment. I told my lawyer about the story of our marriage and even told the lawyer my ex-husband did not use his birth namein our marriage. The lawyer sort our the problem by getting certificate of no marriage fron NSO and he was able to get and shows there that birth name has no previous marriage. But how come he did not use his birth name? So the lawyer tried to get live birth certificate from NSO again for the name he use to me in our marriage and he was able to get the document filed only last 2007. The records shows falls declaration of his identity and even his birth place. What shall i do in order to obtain my freedom. I am confused. Please give me enlightenment and guide me what to do.
Thank you so much for whatever enlightenment you can accord to my confusion.

hi atty. regarding with the problem of my friend. she was a victim of an immitation marriage with a Japanese. Dahil sa mga magagandang sinasabi ng japanese na nagpakasal sa kanya before, pumayag siya, pero hindi niya alam na everymonth kailngan pala siya magbayad sa Japanese.. parang nadala siya sa tamis ng mga sinasabi ng hapon, on the second hand hindi siya ganun karunong umintindi ng nihonggo before kasi. ngayon dineclare ng court sa japan na null and void ang kasal nila. binigyan sila ng papers na nakalagay DELETION of marriage ang sabi din ng atty niya sa japan, null and void nga daw. Atty, sana po masagot nyo po problema ng friend ko, kasi depressed na siya if wat ba gagawin niya, marami kasi nagsasabi na kailngan pa daw iannul at 200,000 ang kailngan ibayad, wala naman po siya pambayad dahil wala naman po siya pera and isa pa dineport po kasi siya… thank you po and wait na lng po kami sa respnse nyo… salamat po atty.
Good day Atty. Biron.. I found out that the guy I married has been legally married for 6 years now.. He told me that he doesn’t know about his first marriage which was just arranged by her first wife.. I confronted her first wife and she testified that she was the only one who arranged everything.. I checked my husband’s CENOMAR and it showed that they are married in San Juan, Metro Manila yet they’re both living in Tondo. According to her first wife, it was arranged by a fixer. They have no marriage license, both of them still needed parental consent then. Are these enough to file for Nullity of Marriage?? what should be the first thing they have to do? Thank you so much and God bless..
hi atty biron, i’ve read your posts.. just wanted to ask for declaration of nullity of marriage, are there cases that are not approved? i was married last 1994 but the person i married falsified his age because he was only 17 that time. i have bc to prove it. do i need anything else? we’ve been separated for 13 years already, i just wanted my surname to be changed back to my maiden and my status cleared. do i have a good chance to win this?
atty.tanung ko lang po kung anu po dapat gawin sa sinomar ko kasi po kasal kami ng dating asawa ko pero po di nman po ako ung unang pinakasalan nya nag tanung din po ako sa mga atty. non and void daw po ang kasal nmin pero sa sinomar po registered po sa NSO gusto ko po sana malinis ang name ko sa nso kasi po gusto na po nmin magpakasal ng bf ko ngaun anu po ba ang dapat gawin.
null and void*
hi atty,
my boyfriend was married to another girl. I knew that even from the start. Nagpakasal daw sila sa tulong ng mga friends nung girl. Iniwan po siya nung girl, at nalaman na hindi naman mayaman ang boyfriend ko (pero kaya nmn bumuhay), ginawa po ng boyfriend ko lahat para makipagbalikan siya sa girl pero, ayaw na ng girl hanggang makilala ko siya. At ngayon po, nananakot pa yun babae at iniinsist yun boyfriend ko na ipaannul yun kasal nila. Ngayon kasal naman na yun girl sa ibang lalaki at may anak na sila. Tinatakot pa kami ng girl na balang araw daw may makukuha siya sa boyfriend ko. Hindi po pala sila nagtagal at ilang buwan lang iniwan na yun boyfriend ko nung girl after nila magpakasal. null and void po ba yun marriage nila? pede po bang kasuhan ng boyfriend ko yun girl ng bigamy? at totoo po ba na may makuha pa siya sa boyfirnd ko in the future? thanks po.
Hi atty. I was wondering what we can do regarding an annulment that my mom is going through right now. My dad asked my mom not appear in the hearings so that the annulment won’t be long. Our properties are named after us. Will we lose it if ever the annulment ends? My dad defense is that my mom has second family it’s true I have half sister with my mom and my dad as well has a child with another woman. And to add to that I have documentation of abuse when I was 15 (physical) After I left my father’s house He hasn’t supported us financially. I asked some atty. regarding this I’m already 19 and my sister is 18. Can we use this so that we would win or demand something from my father? Thank you.
Ako po si Dan Anthony , from Makati po… question po , kung 21 years na po bang hindi makasama ang mag asawa, pwede na po bang mag file ng nullity of marraige?
To the Family Lawyer,
Magandang araw po sa inyo. NAis ko po sanang ilapit sa inyo ang sitwasyon ko. Balak ko po kasi magpakasal sa Pilipinas ngayong December kaso lang po may record po ako sa NSO as married.
Pero sa totoo lang po nalaman ko sa canadian immigration mula pa nung 2007, null and void po yung kasal ko kaya considred lang po kami na common-law partners nung naging asawa ko. matagal na po kaming hiwaly at may pruweba po ako galing sa Canadian Immigration na walang bisa yung naging kasal namin.
Base po kasi sa mga nababasa ko tungkol sa invalid marriage, kailangan munang i declare ang nullity nito bago ako pwedeng magpaksal ulit. Gusto ko po sanang malaman kung kailangan pa rin ng declaration kahit na Canadian citizen nako at nakapag legal change of name nako.
Sana po ay matulungan nyo ako tungkol dito. Naghahanap po kasi ako ng mas mabilis at hindi magastos na paraan dahil wala naman po akong gaanong budget para gumastos ng malaki.
hihintayin ko po ang sagot ninyo.
Maraming salamat po at God bless po.
Lubos na gumagalang,

Good day!
I got married 2009 and I was only 21 that time. My ex was 24 yrs old then and we didn’t inform our families about the marriage. We only signed an affidavit that we were living together for 5 years so that we won’t have to undergo the normal process. But it’s not true that we lived together for 5 years. Coz if backtracked, I am only 16 years old and we don’t know each other that time yet. After the marriage, my ex went to Manila until we decided to part ways. In other words, we still didn’t live together even after the marriage. I want to inquire for the grounds that can be used for my case. Should I file for absolute nullity of marriage? or annulment? Under what grounds? I need serious enlightenment.
Thanks in advance.
Hi how can I file for nullity? I cannot obtain a copy of my husband’s first marriage and he doesn’t want to cooperate. i asked him several times of the full date of his first marriage. Is there a way to get a copy by just name and last name?
get cenomar of your husband it will appear all recods of marriages

hi atty,
How would i file declaration of nullity? i got married 2000 not knowing that the man i married was already married to someone else. we never lived together because he was based in manila and i was in cebu. how long would the process be? and what kind of papers do i have to process.
my friend is married, she found out that her husband’s family name is not the legal one. can she use this as a ground for declaration of nullity of marriage?
Hi Leni, please tell your friend to post her question at the forum section of the website. I will answer her question once I see it there.
Hi atty! I have a query po, in june 28, 2012 I got married sa manila city hall. I reside in london while my partner is a seafarer but still resides in the Philippines. We are both from Tarlac city. Date of birth is June 30, 1986, at the time of marriage (June 28, 2012) is 2 days and 26y/o napo kami pareho, we got married without any parental consent.
He acquired our marriage license, etc by hiring a “fixer” who has an office in Manila city hall. The marriage was ready nung pagdating ko po ng pinas, I only needed to sign the papers. pero yung mga dates po I was not in the Philippines, I dont know if that makes any sense. And though held at manila city hall, registered po sa san juan yung kasal, it was claimed that I reside in manila and sya sa san juan naman po. 2 weeks after the wedding, bumalik na po ako ng london, both our families were unaware of this marriage and never po kami nag sama.
Immediately after the marriage, ngkaron po kami ng conflicts regarding financial issues. Nag loan po sya without my consent, never po pala ako nakatanggap even a single centavo as a support from him and never kami nag live in.
Just wondering po if we can file for nullity of marriage dahil sa pag fake lang ng marriage license etc? although nag sign po kami sa papers but obtained through fraud po lahat? Thank you!!!
about mutual aggreement divorce is it recognized in philippine,if not what petition should i file to end up my marriage to my japanese husband?
Hi Atty Biron! I was married in 1991 and was separated (not legally) in 2009 because of a lot of marital problems. First of all, my husband has a very bad drinking problem which he already had since before our marriage. But I didn’t even know back then that he could also be violent towards me and my kids when he got drunk. I stayed with him inspite of that, hoping for a change, but it only got worse. I finally decided to separate from him in 2009 when he ran after my son with a knife in his hand. Would it be possible for our marriage to be declared void due to psychological incapacity? Also, I have a boyfriend now who is also the one helping me with my kids in all aspects. Would that have any effect if I filed for nullity of marriage against my husband?
Hope to get an answer soon. Thanks.
Atty.
pwede po ba akong mag file ng annulment under
“This article defines “psychological incapacity”. This article says that a marriage contracted by any party who, at the time of celebration, was psychologically incapacitated to comply with the essential marital obligations of marriage shall also be void even if such incapacity becomes manifest only after the celebration of marriage.”
Pano po masasabing qualified yun petition ko under this article?
Hi Elsie, I sent you an email please check it.
Good evening Atty,
Ask ko lang po na granted po yung annulment ko nug Feb 2013. Na registered ko na po nung May 2013 sa Pasig LCR at Manila Office of Civil Registrar. Sabi po sa manila tawag po ako after 3 weeks.
Atty sa last paragraph ng Decison ko may naka sulat po na “upon Entry of Judgement of the Appelate Court, the Court motion shall proceed with petitioner’s prayer for custody and support of the parties”
Ibig sabihin po atty pag nakapag register na po ako sa LCR Pasig at CR Manila eh kailangan ko po ulit mag file motion for custody ng bata? Para makakuha po ako ng Certificate of Finality at Court Decree of Annulment/Declaration of Nullity of Marriage?
Kasi po nakatira po ngayon ang anak ko sa magulang ng ex ko. Pero di nakatira yung ex ko dun. Sila po kasi ang nag papa aral at malapit sa school nya.
Kung mag file po ako ng Joint custody dapat po ba may lawyer din yung ex ko, at kailangan po ba sya mag appeal sa korte? Pa anu po kung di sya mag appeal anu po mangyayari?
Or pwede po ba pumili yung bata? 16 years old po sya.
Atty pls advice po kung anu po pwede gawin. Kasi po gusto ko rin makakuha ng Certificate Finality at Decree of Annulment.
Yung lawyer ko po kasi di ko po maintindihan pag nag eexplain sya. Pwede rin po ba lumipat ng lawyer?
Pls Atty bigyan nyo po sana ako ng advice.
Thank you po Atty,
Jenny
