According to the provisions of China's Civil Code, the legal age for marriage for women shall not be earlier than 20 years old.
This regulation reflects the protection of women's rights, ensuring that they reach a certain level of maturity both psychologically and physically, and are able to approach marital life rationally. This age limit not only helps women's personal growth, but also ensures the stability of marriage and harmony in the family.

Compared to women, the legal age for marriage for men is not earlier than 22 years old. This regulation differs from the legal age of marriage for women, mainly based on the differences in physiological and psychological maturity between men and women.
