Domestic Partnerships in Wisconsin
Wisconsin established a statewide Domestic Partnership Registry in 2009, providing certain legal rights and protections to same-sex couples who were not legally permitted to marry at that time.
After same-sex marriage became legal nationwide in 2015, Wisconsin’s domestic partnership registry remained in effect for several more years. However, the state ended the registration of new domestic partnerships on April 1, 2018.
Domestic partnerships that were properly registered before April 1, 2018, may remain in effect unless they have been legally terminated. Because Wisconsin no longer accepts new domestic partnership registrations, Termination of Domestic Partnership records relate to partnerships established while the registry was available.

Does the Termination of Domestic Partnership Certificate have to be from Wisconsin?

Do I need a certified copy for an apostille?
You should obtain a certified copy for legal and apostille purposes. Wisconsin certified copies are printed on security paper and contain a raised seal and the signature of the State Registrar or Local Registrar. Uncertified copies are intended for informational purposes and cannot be used for legal or identification purposes.
Can I use a photocopy of my Termination of Domestic Partnership Certificate?
No. Do not submit a photocopy of a Wisconsin vital record for apostille processing. The appropriate certified document should be submitted.
Where can I obtain a Wisconsin Termination of Domestic Partnership Certificate?
Termination of Domestic Partnership records are maintained by the Wisconsin Vital Records Office. Certified copies can be requested by eligible applicants who meet Wisconsin’s identification and eligibility requirements.
Why would I need an apostille on a Termination of Domestic Partnership Certificate?
You may need an apostille when a foreign government, consulate, court, immigration authority, or other organization requires official proof that your Wisconsin domestic partnership was terminated.
Can I use an apostilled Termination of Domestic Partnership Certificate to get married in another country?
It may be requested as evidence that a previous domestic partnership has ended. However, marriage requirements vary by country. The foreign authority may require additional documents, such as a birth certificate, divorce certificate, or proof of eligibility to marry.
Is a Termination of Domestic Partnership Certificate the same as a divorce certificate?
No. A Termination of Domestic Partnership Certificate documents the termination of a registered domestic partnership. A divorce certificate documents the dissolution of a marriage.
Does Wisconsin still issue Termination of Domestic Partnership Certificates?
Wisconsin no longer accepts new Declarations of Domestic Partnership, but the Wisconsin Vital Records Office continues to maintain and issue copies of existing Declaration and Termination of Domestic Partnership records.
What if the destination country is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention?
An apostille may not be the appropriate certification. Documents being used in a non-Hague country may require an authentication instead. The destination country determines which process applies.
Do I need to provide the country where the document will be used?
Yes. The destination country is important because it determines whether your Wisconsin document requires an apostille or another form of authentication.
Will my apostilled certificate need to be translated?
Possibly. Translation requirements are established by the country or organization receiving the document. Some authorities require a certified translation in addition to the apostilled certificate.
