During marriage, donations can be made between spouses.
But did you know that they can be revoked by the donor spouse at
any time during marriage, until divorce is finalised?
Under Monegasque law, donations between spouses are
always revocable under article 951 of the Civil
Code, leading to restitution.
It is imperative to consider the law applicable to a
donation between spouses and its revocation.
The modalities and criteria may in fact be different according to
the applicable law of each country.
It is the so-called conflict-of-laws rule
(règle de conflit de lois) that determines the law
applicable to a legal situation in an international context.
WhenMonegasque lawis applicable, the criteria for determining
the law applicable to donations between spouses are set out in the
Code of Private International Law.
