Marriage: conversion of a registered civil partnership into a marriage
-
Partnerschaft und Familie
Procedure
The couple decides whether the transformation will take place at the desk or in one of the marriage rooms of the registry office.
Registration is possible only by prior appointment.
Legal bases
More information
Since the conversion is a marriage, both partners must be present at the registry office on this date. If the conversion does not take place directly after the registration for conversion but, for example, as part of a formal ceremony at a later date, a power of attorney for the date of registration is possible. It is best to contact the registry office in advance.
