Legal status of children born out of wedlock

In Iranian law, illegal marriages can be divided into two categories. A) Illegal marriages, which are also illegal, such as marriage with foster relatives, relative, causal, marriage in ihram, marriage with a married woman and in some, etc. In this category of marriages, a man and a woman will not have a legal marriage and the child born of it Will not be legitimate either. B) Illegal marriages that are legal. In this type of marriage, which is legally valid but for some reason the legislator has considered them illegal. One of the cases of illegal but legal marriage is a marriage that has not been registered in the official marriage registry. The law formalizes marriages that are registered in one of the marriage registers and provides for punishment for not registering the marriage officially. Another illegal marriage that, although performed according to the rules of the Holy Shari'a, is not permissible from the point of view marrying foreign nationals without the permission of the government. Such marriages do not have the legal effects of marriage registration, such as the issuance of birth certificates for children and the citizenship of the couple seeking marriage, and so on. In such marriages, the first victims are the spouses themselves, who, like other couples, cannot enjoy the benefits of law and order in marriage. .
