The Marriage Act is an Act of Parliament that was passed in 1955 in New Zealand and is administered by the Ministry of Justice. It repealed the Marriage Act 1908.[1]

Forbidden marriages, those between relatives and relatives in a civil union, are detailed in Schedule 2 of the Act.[2]

The Act led to some enactments by the Parliament of England and the Parliament of the United Kingdom to cease having an effect in New Zealand, the earliest being the Ecclesiastical Licences Act 1536.[3]
