What Qualifies you for an Annulment in Utah?

A marriage can only be annulled in Utah when:

  • There is fraud or misrepresentation on the part of one spouse
  • One spouse was already married at the time of the marriage
  • A spouse is under the legal age of consent and has no parental consent
  • The spouses are first cousins or closer relations
  • A spouse refuses or can’t have sexual intercourse

Basically, an annulment declares that a marriage was not valid. When a couple has their marriage annulled, it means that they were not officially married. This process is shorter than divorce and there is no waiting period, so you are able to move forward with the process faster. In order to qualify, however, you must have grounds for annulment.

Because the law is so specific and the grounds are limited, it can be difficult to qualify for an annulment in Utah. For this reason, most people make the decision to pursue a divorce to end their marriages. However, people with grounds for an annulment often prefer this process because they want to avoid the stigma of divorce and move forward with their lives faster.
