Civil partnership is different from a marriage, and to register a civil partnership, you must read this article for your knowledge.
A civil partnership will give your relationship a value and legal rights. You can register a civil partnership at the registrar’s office in England and Wales. In fact, same-sex couples can even form it.
How to register a civil partnership
To register a civil partnership, what you have to do:
a) Apply to the civil registrar office and give them a notice.
i) Giving notice to register a civil partnership:
You and your partner have to give notice of your intention to register a civil partnership at the registrar’s office. You can give notice at your local registrar’s office, but you must be residing in the same area for at least 7 days. Once you give notice, then the registrar may refer the matter to the Home Office/UKVI so that they can be able to investigate whether it is a genuine notice of registration of partnership or a sham.
b) You have to be 18 years old, but if you are 16 years old and want to register a civil partnership, then your guardians have to consent to this.
c) You must carry your identity document, such as a passport.
d) Must carry an address proof such as a utility bill or any other source of evidence.
Once you give notice, then the registrar will contact you, possibly within 28 days, to attend the registrar’s office with two witnesses, as you have to sign the civil partnership document. Please note there is a fee to be paid to the registrar, which you must check with them directly.
Benefits of registering a civil partnership:
You will have legal recognition.
You can apply for leave to remain in the United Kingdom on the basis of your registered relationship.
You will be granted a visa for 2.5 years based on your relationship by the Home Office/UKVI.
Should you wish, then you can be able to end your civil partnership by applying to the court. The court fee to end it is £45.
