El Duvelle#UK question: what is the difference between Civil Marriage and Civil Partnership in the UK (more specifically #Scotland if it changes anything)? Why would you choose one over the other? Is it just that "civil marriage" is more likely to get recognised internationally?
I can't seem to find any clear info on this online..
Edit:
- this Reddit thread gives some info, but mostly unsourced. In this one someone summarised the England & Wales rules.
- this page from what seems to be a legal firm is quite useful and focuses on Scottish law.
Basically it seems that the few legal differences are inconsequential.
