Ending a civil partnership

Ending a civil partnership involves a legal process called dissolution, which requires a minimum duration of one year of being in the civil partnership before applying for dissolution.

Similar to married couples, individuals in a civil partnership enjoy the same rights concerning tax benefits, pensions, and inheritance. Consequently, dissolving a civil
partnership grants the same entitlements as those available to a spouse going through a divorce.

The dissolution of a civil partnership follows a court procedure, similar to divorce proceedings. Throughout this process, it is possible to seek financial provision through
various means, including lump sum payments, property transfers, maintenance orders, and pension sharing orders. These provisions can also be sought in relation to any children of the partnership.
