WBL: Legal Framework, Marriage, The law grants a woman the same rights to remarry as a man

Wereldbankvia Wereldbank-indicatoren · updated 14 October 2026

What's in it

The indicator assesses whether the law does not contain any of the following three constraints: (1) the law limits the ability of a woman to remarry in a way that does not apply to a man—for example, by requiring a waiting period before being able to remarry, while the same period does not apply to a man; OR (2) a woman is required to provide a certificate showing that she is not pregnant before being able to remarry; OR (3) divorce is not legally allowed. Score = 1 if none of the three conditions is met; otherwise, score = 0. For details, please refer to the WBL Methodology Handbook (link: https://wbl.worldbank.org/content/dam/sites/wbl/documents/2026/WBL-Methodology-Handbook-2026-FINAL.pdf) Bron: World Bank: Women, Business and the Law. https://wbl.worldbank.org/.
