You can apply for a Queensland civil partnership certificate if you or the person you are applying for registered a civil partnership in Queensland.
We don't automatically send a certificate when a partnership is registered. You need to buy one.

Certificate options
There are 2 types of certificates:
- official civil partnership certificate—can be used for official purposes.
- commemorative civil partnership certificate package (pictured here) includes an official civil partnership certificate.
If your partnership was registered outside Queensland, contact the interstate or overseas registering authority to get your certificate.
