Forced marriage annulment and child marriage restrictions
A marriage entered into under duress could be dissolved by annulment, returning the person's marital status to what it was prior to the marriage. In addition, marriages entered into abroad while a minor would be recognised in Finland only in exceptional cases if one of the spouses was living in Finland when the marriage was entered into.
