Wedding slots in Wałbrzych

A civil wedding in Wałbrzych begins with filing a declaration of no impediment to marriage at the Civil Registry Office. After submitting documents and statements, a statutory waiting period of at least 1 month applies. This period allows the authorities to verify information and prepare for the ceremony.

To have a civil wedding in Wałbrzych, Polish citizens should have a valid identity card or passport. Birth certificates are obtained directly from the civil registry, so there is usually no need to provide them. Foreigners must submit an identity document, a copy of the birth certificate, a certificate of legal capacity to marry, and certified translations of required documents.

The ceremony requires the presence of 2 adult witnesses, who can be Polish citizens or foreigners. During the ceremony, the couple make statements of intent, and the civil registry officer draws up the marriage certificate. The fee for drawing up the certificate is 84 zł.

Wałbrzych offers the possibility of having an outdoor wedding outside the Civil Registry Office. In this case, an additional fee of 1000 zł applies, and the couple must provide appropriate conditions and safety for the ceremony in accordance with the office’s requirements.

After the ceremony, the couple receive the marriage certificate. The first certified copy of the document is issued free of charge. Further copies can be obtained for a fee.
