Donations

(1) The spouse who manages the common matrimonial property may make donations of objects from the common matrimonial property only with the consent of the other spouse; where a spouse has promised, without the approval of the other spouse, to make donations of objects from the common matrimonial property, they may fulfil this promise only if the other spouse consents. The same applies to a promise of donation that does not relate to the common matrimonial property.

(2) Donations that are made to comply with a moral duty or to show consideration for decency are exempt.
