What state can you marry more than one person?
Polygamy is illegal in all 50 states. But Utah's law is unique in that a person can be found guilty not just for having two legal marriage licenses, but also for cohabiting with another adult in a marriage-like relationship when they are already legally married to someone else.
Is it illegal to be married twice at the same time?
Committing bigamy in the United States is against the law in every state, and those who engage in it can be subject to both criminal and civil penalties. Civil law treats this concept somewhat differently than criminal law. Because your second marriage is illegal, it is considered void because it legally cannot exist.
Is it illegal to marry in two countries?
Yes you can. In order to not be recorded as being married to two different people each living in a different county you simply avoid recording it in your home country.
