Summary

The bill envisages changing the content of the institution of marriage, known from family law, in such a way that in the future two natural persons of legal age can enter into marriage, regardless of their gender. In addition to marriage, individuals also have the option of entering into a cohabitation agreement as an alternative. The draft stipulates the provisions necessary for the implementation of the Cohabitation Act, which are currently missing in the legal system, and creates a simplified procedure for the transition from a cohabitation agreement to marriage. With the bill the family law also specifies the regulation of descent, related to the adoption right of same-sex couples.

Machine translation from Estonian. The official text remains authoritative.
