The revised Imperial House Law allows female royals to retain their imperial status and continue performing official duties when they marry commoners. However, this provision applies prospectively to current and future unmarried princesses, and is not retroactive. Princesses who already married commoners and became commoners themselves (such as Sayako in 2005 and Mako Komuro in 2021) do not regain their former titles under this legislation.
