Marriage is not always the right option for every couple. Some enter into domestic partnership agreements as an alternative to marriage. Domestic partnerships, also called civil unions, allow a couple to be legally recognized as a supportive, committed partnership. It does not have the same legal rights or requirements as marriage. Learning the difference between a Colorado domestic partnership and marriage is necessary when determining which works best for your relationship.

How Can I Register a Domestic Partnership?

To register a domestic partnership with the state, you must make an appointment with the county registrar’s office or city clerk. Make your appointment far in advance, and set it for a day when both you and your partner can go to the office together and in person. You may need to fill out an application before you arrive for the appointment, depending on where you are registering. Additionally, you will need to bring:

  • Proof that the two of you share a household. This can be done by providing valid documents such as a lease agreement, joint mortgage, joint bank account, the address on each of your driver’s licenses, or separate utility bills.
  • Valid photo identification. This includes a driver’s license, passport, state ID, or military ID.
  • $25. This is for the registration fee.

The clerk will check that these documents are valid and take the registration fee. You and your partner will then sign an affidavit. You have then registered your domestic partnership and obtained legal recognition in Colorado.
