Abstrakt: Annually, child marriage endangers the lives and prospects of millions of youngsters. Despite regulations regulating the minimum age for marriage, this practice is prevalent and troublesome in several nations. Child marriage persists in several regions worldwide despite being disapproved upon in some civilizations. The present work aims to analyze the idea of maturity within the context of marital law. This study involves normative legal research utilizing philosophical, statutory, and conceptual approaches. The methods employed for analyzing legal materials are surveying, questioning, reading, reciting/recalling, and reviewing using logical reasoning. The investigation reveals that the idea of maturity in marriage legislation in countries including Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam, and Vietnam is mostly based on setting a minimum age for marriage, despite the fact that age may not accurately reflect a person's maturity level.
