Abstract: The joint property of spouses represents a fundamental institution in family and property law, significantly influencing economic relationships within marriage. This paper aims to analyze the legal and practical aspects of this concept, based on the Family Law of the Republic of Kosovo, while drawing comparisons with selected international models. The study highlights the challenges in defining, managing, and dividing joint property, as well as the role of courts in fairly applying legal norms. Special attention is given to non-material contributions, such as domestic work and childcare, in assessing property rights. In conclusion, recommendations are presented to improve the legal framework and judicial practice, aimed at ensuring gender equality and protecting the interests of both spouses.
