Polygamy in Eswatini

Polygamy in Eswatini is legal but rare due to high dowry prices.[1] Eswatini has a dual legal system of common law, based on Roman-Dutch law, and traditional unwritten Swazi law. Polygamous marriages are mostly performed under traditional law but also sometimes under civil marriage.[1]
