Wife's Alimony
Note: Total alimony exceeds 60% of income. Courts typically cap total obligations at this threshold to ensure the payer can meet basic needs.
Legal Basis
- • Article 1 of Law 100/1985 amending Personal Status Law: alimony is obligatory upon the husband
- • Jurisprudence and courts estimate wife's alimony at 20–35% of net income
- • Multiple wives: each wife's share is proportionally reduced
- • Child support ranges from 10–20% for the first child, decreasing proportionally for siblings
- • The custodial mother has the right to suitable housing until the custody age
- • Article 3 of Personal Status Law: children are obligated to support parents unable to earn
