Małżeństwa jednopłciowe i związki partnerskie w Polskim Rejestrze Stanu Cywilnego? / Same Sex Marriages and Registered Partnerships in the Polish Register of Civil Status?

Journal Title: Studia Prawno-Ekonomiczne - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue

Abstract

Polish family law does not regulate same sex marriages or registered partnerships. Still, a growing number of persons whose records are kept in the Polish system of civil status registration (predominantly Polish citizens) enter into such unions abroad. The article is devoted to the presentation of arguments in favour of including information on same sex marriages and registered partnerships in the Polish register of civil status. The legal mechanism which, according to the Author, ought to be used in this respect is an annotation that could be made – further to art. 25.1 of the Law on Civil Status Acts of 2014 – next to the act of birth of the involved persons. The Author argues also that the ban on bigamy, which can be found in art. 13 §1 of the Polish Family and Guardianship Code, should be applied by analogy with regard to institutional family unions not regulated by Polish law, provided that such ban is envisaged by the law that governs the union in question.
