Our Civil Partnerships in England and Wales Services:

Entering a Civil Partnership involves specific legal steps and understanding your rights and obligations. Our services are designed to provide you with complete clarity and professional support throughout this process.

Eligibility Assessment

Before entering a civil partnership, it’s essential to confirm that you meet all legal requirements. We’ll review your age, relationship status, legal residency, and any potential restrictions, such as familial ties or previous marriages, to ensure you’re fully eligible. Our goal is to prevent delays or legal complications by providing clear, accurate guidance from the start.

Visa and Immigration Support

If you or your partner are from outside the UK, visa requirements can complicate the process. We help you understand which visa is needed, assist with the application, and guide you through the essential steps. Whether you're on a long-term visa or applying from abroad, we’ll support you in navigating the UK’s immigration system smoothly.

Guidance on Visa Type and Requirement

The type of visa you need depends on your partner’s status and your future plans. If you're coming to the UK for a short stay just for the ceremony, a Marriage Visitor Visa is the right choice. Planning to live in the UK after? You’ll likely need a Family Visa if your partner is British. If your partner is from the EU, EEA, or Switzerland, a Family Permit might apply. We’ll help you choose the right route and handle the paperwork for you.
