Cel dokonywania w akcie notarialnym wyboru prawa polskiego dla stosunków majątkowych małżeńskich obywateli polskich

Republic of Poland is not bound by the Council Regulation (EU) 2016/1103 of 24 June 2016 implementing enhanced cooperation in the area of jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions in matters of matrimonial property regimes. Our country has not accepted enhanced cooperation concerning matrimonial or divorce matters. However some rules derived from the mentioned Regulation, as part of legal order of other European Union countries may be applied in Poland. Such a situation may also occur in the case of proceedings before a Polish civil law notary. Considering the risk of such application it is worth introducing choice of Polish law made in favour of Polish citizens in their matrimonial property contracts. This article analyses the possibilities of such a choice of law and its impact on the spouse’ property relationship.
