Article 21-5 of the French Civil Code

A marriage declared null and void by a decision of a French court or a foreign court whose authority is recognised in France does not render null and void the declaration provided for in article 21-2 in favour of the spouse who contracted it in good faith.

Article 21-5

Le mariage déclaré nul par une décision émanant d’une juridiction française ou d’une juridiction étrangère dont l’autorité est reconnue en France ne rend pas caduque la déclaration prévue à l’article 21-2 au profit du conjoint qui l’a contracté de bonne foi.
