Finnish term or phrase: avio-oikeus
Hello,
This is my first question on this Website!
The complete sentence reads "Me allekirjoittaneet puolisot peruutamme Tampereen käräjäoikeudessa rekisteröydyn avioehtosopimuksen ja haluamme, että avio-oikeus palautetaan välillemme täysimääräisesti."
Does this mean that both spouses get back the property rights that they had before marriage?

right to matrimonial property
Explanation:
right to matrimonial property (see link). The sentence means that the spouses wish to void the terms of their marriage settlement, or their prenuptial agreement if it predated the marriage. A translation of the sentence might read:
We, the undersigned spouses, hereby void the marriage settlement agreement filed at Tampere District Court, and wish that our individual rights to matrimonial property be restored.
