The Marriage Law requires couples of different religions if they want to marry, they must submit to the religion of one of the parties. As for the inheritance rights of children born from marriages of couples of different religions according to Balinese customary law, if the child follows his father's religion, he will be given the right to inherit. However, if the child follows the religion of his mother, he will not get the right to inherit. This is based on that the Balinese customary inheritance law adheres to the limeusa principle (father line) and inheritance is not only in the form of rights but also certain obligations that can only be carried out by heirs of the same religion as the heir.
