Civil Status Extracts

Since obtaining a certified copy of the record or direct access to the register by third parties may cause moral harm to the holder of the record or their beneficiaries, the legislator has defined conditions for obtaining civil status documents.

Obtaining Civil Status Documents

Copies of the record or extracts from it may be obtained depending on the status of the requester.

A certified copy or extract of civil status records (birth, marriage, death) can only be obtained by the record holder, their direct ascendants or descendants, their spouse (not divorced or legally separated), their guardian or legal representative if they are a minor or incapacitated, or the public prosecutor. Any other person must obtain authorization from a judge.
