1.
The personal status of a refugee shall be governed by the law of the country of his domicile or, if he has no domicile, by the laws of the country of his residence.
2.
Rights previously acquired by a refugee and dependent on personal status, more particularly rights attaching to marriage, shall be respected by a Contracting State, subject to compliance, if this be necessary, with the formalities required by the law of that State, provided that the right in question is one which would have been recognized by the law of that State had he not become a refugee.
