Give notice

Once you have planned your ceremony, you must book an appointment to give us notice of your intention to form a civil partnership.

When to give notice

Giving your notice is a legal requirement that must be completed before your civil partnership ceremony.

This is an appointment that you will both need to attend. 

Notices are specific to the place of your ceremony. You can't book an appointment more than 12 months before your ceremony, but you must book it at least 29 days before.

Where to give notice

Make an appointment at Neath Port Talbot Register Office. You must have lived in the area covered by that office for at least 7 days.

If you and your partner live in different areas, you must each give notice separately in your own area.
