Apply for a civil partnership certificate

Online application for civil partnership certificates
Please pay particular attention to our information under:

  • service description

    The civil partnership certificate serves as proof that you have entered into a civil partnership. You can obtain it from the registry office that registered your civil partnership or that subsequently registered a civil partnership that was entered into abroad.

    The civil partnership certificate contains:

    • Their first and last names before and during their civil partnership
    • Place and date of birth of the life partner
    • Place and date of the establishment of the civil partnership

    You can receive the civil partnership certificate in the following forms:

    • certificate
    • certified copy from the civil partnership register

    A certified copy from the civil partnership register contains all the data that the registry office has entered in connection with the civil partnership.

    In addition to the details, the statement also includes subsequent changes such as the dissolution of the civil partnership or the conversion of the civil partnership into a marriage.

  • procedure

    You can find out whether a procedure is in place by contacting the relevant municipality.
