A total of 92,300 marriages were registered in the country in January-June 2026. The figure covers only half a year, so it cannot be compared directly with full-year totals from earlier years.
The highest annual figure from 1991 to 2025 was recorded in 2018, at 311,400 marriages. The 2025 total was 44,300, or about 14.2%, below that record.
In 1991, 270,300 marriages were registered in the country, which means the 2025 total was also 3,200 lower than in 1991. However, these numbers show the total count of registered marriages, not the marriage rate relative to population.
