Municipality of Olst-Wijhe: registering a civil partnership

The municipality checks whether you may enter into a civil partnership. Do you get permission? Then you can enter into a civil partnership.

Do you not live in the Netherlands? But do you want to enter into a civil partnership in the Netherlands? Read the information on the page getting married in the Netherlands if you live abroad.

The conditions for a civil partnership are:

  • You are 18 years or older. Are you younger than 18 years old? Then your parents or the court must give permission. If you have a child or are pregnant, you may enter into a civil partnership from the age of 16.
  • You are not married and are not registered as a partner.
  • If you are under guardianship, you need permission from the curator or subdistrict court judge.
  • One of the two partners must be a Dutch national or live in the Netherlands.
  • You and your partner are not directly related to each other. (No parent or child, grandparent or grandchild, sibling, half-brother or half-sister and cousin).

When reporting a partnership, we ask for:

  • Valid proof of identity
  • Details of the witnesses

Were you born abroad? Then we also ask for:

  • Birth certificate
  • Proof of being unmarried

What you need when reporting a partnership can vary. You should therefore always contact Public Affairs first, phone +31 (0)570 568 080.
