The ceremony requires the presence of two adult witnesses. These can be persons of any nationality, it is only important that they are of legal age and can confirm the course of the ceremony.
Zapolice also offers the possibility of concluding a marriage outside the office headquarters. An outdoor wedding or a wedding at another chosen location involves an additional fee of 1000 zł. The office then requires ensuring safety and dignified conditions for the young couple and office staff.
The marriage certificate is issued immediately after the ceremony. Apart from the first certified copy of the short-form certificate, which is free of charge, additional copies can be obtained for a fee at the Civil Status Office in Zapolice.
