Abstract

Marriage registration involves several procedures such as reporting the intention to marry, marriage investigation, notice of the intention to marry, wedding vow, and registration. The process of marriage registration involves form fulfilment containing columns to identify the identity of the couple. In the identification, the information about the status “virgin or widow” and “bachelor or widower” often brings controversy as this part creates ambiguity and normative conflicts in the registration of marriage. Marriage status could mean biological, as understood textually, and it could also mean vow, as known based on marriage registration. The ambiguity of the term ‘virgin’ in the registration of marriage causes changes to be made in the law that rules. As a result, the law that frames the norm of ‘virgin’ status reconstructs the existing fixed law. The implementation of marriage registration in politics of law goes through two phases: pluralism of law and unification of law, making the status case more controversial despite the fact that marriage law is based on juridical norms.
