Marriage age of Yi people in Ganluo County, Daliangshan in 2006.

Ethnic minority males are over 20 years old and females 18 years old.

The legal age for marriage in China is 22 years for men; Women over the age of 20; In order to respect the customs and habits of ethnic minorities, the current marriage law stipulates that ethnic autonomous areas can make flexible provisions on the legal age for marriage according to their own actual conditions. For example, Ningxia, Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Tibet and other autonomous regions and some autonomous prefectures, autonomous counties and other ethnic minority areas stipulate that ethnic minority men should be 20 years old and women should be 18 years old. However, these flexible regulations only apply to ethnic minorities, not to Han people living in this area.
