Can. 821.§ 1. The beginning of the celebration of Mass is not to occur earlier than one hour before dawn or later than one hour after noon.
§ 2. On the night of the Nativity of the Lord, only the conventual or parochial Mass can be begun at midnight, but not another without apostolic indult.
§ 3. Nevertheless in all religious or pious houses having an oratory with the faculty of habitually reserving the most holy Eucharist, on the night of the Nativity of the Lord, one priest can celebrate three ritual Masses or, with what must be observed having been observed, only one Mass which may avail for all those present also for satisfaction of the precept, and can minister sacred communion to those asking.
§ 1. Missae celebrandae initium ne fiat citius quam una hora ante auroram vel serius quam una hora post meridiem.
§ 2. In nocte Nativitatis Domini inchoari media nocte potest sola Missa conventualis vel paroecialis, non autem alia sine apostolico indulto.
§ 3. In omnibus tamen religiosis seu piis domibus oratorium habentibus cum facultate sanctissimam Eucharistiam habitualiter asservandi, nocte Nativitatis Domini, unus sacerdos tres rituales Missas vel, servatis servandis, unam tantum quae adstantibus omnibus ad praecepti quoque satisfactionem valeat, celebrare potest et sacram communionem petentibus ministrare.

Can. 822.§ 1. Mass is to be celebrated upon a consecrated altar and in a church or oratory consecrated or blessed according to the norm of law, with the prescription of can. 1196 preserved.
§ 2. The privilege of a portable altar is granted only either by law or by indult of the Apostolic See.
§ 3. This privilege is to be understood in such a way that it carries with itself the faculty of celebrating anywhere, yet in an honorable and decent place and upon a sacred stone, but not at sea.
§ 4. The local Ordinary or, if there is question of a house of an exempt religious institute, the major Superior, can grant permission of celebrating outside a church and oratory upon a sacred stone and in a decent place, but never in a bedroom, only for a just and reasonable cause, in some extraordinary case and by way of an act.
§ 1. Missa celebranda est super altare consecratum et in ecclesia vel oratorio consecrato aut benedicto ad normam iuris, salvo praescripto can. 1196.
§ 2. Privilegium altaris portatilis vel iure vel indulto Sedis tantum Apostolicae conceditur.
§ 3. Hoc privilegium ita intelligendum est, ut secumferat facultatem ubique celebrandi, honesto tamen ac decenti loco et super petram sacram, non autem in mari.
§ 4. Loci Ordinarius aut, si agatur de domo religionis exemptae, Superior maior, licentiam celebrandi extra ecclesiam et oratorium super petram sacram et decenti loco, nunquam autem in cubiculo, concedere potest iusta tantum ac rationabili de causa, in aliquo extraordinario casu et per modum actus.
