Registering the ending of a civil partnership in the civil registry in the Netherlands

Have you had your civil partnership ended by a lawyer or notary? Then they will register the final order (Akte ontbinding van geregistreerd partnerschap) with the civil registry (burgerlijke stand). Have you had your civil partnership ended by a court? Then the court will have the final order registered with the civil registry.

Ending a civil partnership outside of the courts

Your lawyer or notary sends the final order to the civil registry for registration. This is done within 3 months.

Ending a civil partnership by a judge in court

If a judge ends your civil partnership, registration with the civil registry follows within 6 months.

The final order should be registered with the registry office of the municipality where you formed your civil partnership. You must do this within 3 months if the final order is issued by a lawyer or notary, 6 months if issued by a court. Only then is your civil partnership legally ended.
