Wedding slots in Dąbrowa

A civil marriage in Dąbrowa begins with submitting a declaration of no impediment to marriage at the Civil Status Office. After submitting the documents, a statutory waiting period begins, which is a minimum of 1 month. During this period, the office verifies the application and prepares for the ceremony.

Polish citizens should bring a valid identity card or passport. Extracts from birth certificates are not required, as the Civil Status Office in Dąbrowa retrieves them from the register. The procedure is simplified for Polish citizens and takes less time than for foreigners.

Foreigners must provide additional documents:

• identity document,
• extract from birth certificate,
• certificate of legal capacity to marry (or court order if obtaining a certificate is impossible),
• sworn translations of foreign language documents.

The fee for preparing a marriage certificate is 84 zł. This amount applies regardless of whether the ceremony takes place at the Civil Status Office premises or elsewhere.

The ceremony requires the presence of 2 adult witnesses. They can be persons of any nationality. Witnesses must be mentally sound and able to make a statement.

The possibility of having a marriage ceremony outside the Civil Status Office in Dąbrowa exists, but involves an additional fee of 1000 zł. The office requires ensuring safety and dignified conditions for the ceremony. After the ceremony, the spouses receive a marriage certificate, and the first short extract is issued free of charge.
