Saya rakyat Malaysia yang bekerja di luar negara, perlukah kebenaran poligami?

Ya. Rakyat Malaysia beragama Islam yang bermastautin di sesuatu negeri masih tertakluk kepada enakmen negeri itu walaupun berada di luar negara. Jika anda sudah beristeri dan ingin berkahwin lagi, dapatkan kebenaran Mahkamah Syariah negeri anda terlebih dahulu. Nikah di luar negara perlu didaftarkan melalui perwakilan Malaysia atau pejabat agama negeri, lazimnya dalam enam bulan. Nikah tanpa kebenaran boleh membawa kepada pendakwaan apabila didaftarkan. Selain itu, patuhi undang-undang negara tempat anda bernikah; di sesetengah negara poligami diharamkan sama sekali. Lihat nikah luar negara dan prosedur poligami .

I am a Malaysian working abroad: do I need permission for polygyny?

Yes. Muslim Malaysians domiciled in a state remain subject to that state's Enactment even while abroad. If you already have a wife and wish to marry again, obtain the permission of your state Syariah Court first. A marriage abroad must be registered through a Malaysian mission or the state religious affairs office, usually within six months. A marriage without permission can lead to prosecution when it is registered. In addition, comply with the law of the country where you marry; in some countries polygyny is banned outright. See marriage abroad and polygyny procedure.
