Marriage in Tunisia: the law, the contract and meeting someone serious

Marriage in Tunisia is civil, concluded before two notaries or the civil status officer, and the law has banned polygamy since 1956. What comes before the contract is the introduction, where Zawjni helps for free between Tunisians at home and abroad, with a clear marital status field.

What does Tunisian law say about marriage?

Marriage in Tunisia is civil, concluded before two notaries or the civil status officer. The Personal Status Code has banned and penalised polygamy since 1956.

So anyone looking for a second wife runs into Tunisian law, and it is better for both sides to know that from the start. Zawjni does not conclude marriages or issue documents.

Marriage offers with phone numbers in Tunisia: why not publish yours?

Tunisians search for "Tunisian marriage offers" and "marriage offers from Djerba with phone number", posts that show the number to anyone who reads them. A published number cannot be withdrawn, and nobody checks who posted the offer.

Zawjni has no phone field, and contact starts with a message inside the site after a like. You can block or report any member, and our team reviews every report.

Before you write your profile

State your governorate (Tunis, Sfax, Sousse, the south...) and whether you live in France or Italy. Do not hide your marital status; anyone looking to remarry after divorce or widowhood wants to see it on the profile.
