For its part, the Vietnamese government now requires that both the bride and groom appear in person to register their marriage-it used to allow one partner to do so on behalf of the couple-and that the groom be younger than the bride's father.
越南政府也改變過去只要男女雙方其中一位代表去登記結婚即可的規定，要求必須雙方一同前往登記，同時還新增了「新郎年紀不得大於新娘父親」的新規定。
