Marriage is a physical and spiritual bond between a man and a woman as husband and wife to establish a happy and everlasting family based on belief in God Almighty. In practice, marriage must fulfill the prescribed formal and material requirements. If these requirements are not met, the marriage can be annulled, leading to various legal consequences. This research aims to analyze the legal impacts of marriage annulment due to identity fraud based on the Marriage Law and the Compilation of Islamic Law. The research method employed is normative juridical with a doctrinal approach, utilizing secondary data from document studies and case analysis. The results indicate that marriages conducted with identity fraud are declared null and void by a court decision, rendering the marriage as though it never existed. This decision affects joint property and the legal status of children born from such marriages. This research has implications for strengthening legal regulations to prevent identity fraud in marriages and raising public awareness of the importance of validating marriage documents.
