Civil Partnerships

Registering a civil partnership

Where you can register a civil partnership

A civil partnership can be registered at a register office or at any venue that has been approved for the registration of civil partnerships. Approved Premises include stately homes and other prestigious buildings, hotels and restaurants.

In order to register a civil partnership you must first give notice, part of this process is to provide the details of where you intend to register your civil partnership.

To search for a location that has been approved by the registration authorities to date or to find out how to purchase a hard copy in booklet form, see Approved venue search.
