<commit_before>Same-sex relationships in Sweden that are recognised as civil partnerships under British law are known as:

- marriage
- ’registrerat partnerskap’, or ’registered partnership’.

Contact the relevant local authorities in Sweden to find out about local laws, including what documents you’ll need.

You should also check the [travel advice for Sweden](/foreign-travel-advice/sweden).

##What you need to do

You’ll be asked to provide a certificate of no impediment (CNI) to prove you’re allowed to enter into a civil partnership or equivalent in Sweden.

Contact the local British embassy or consulate where you’re planning the ceremony to find out what you need to do.

##What you need to do

You’ll be asked to provide a certificate of no impediment (CNI) to prove you’re allowed to enter into a civil partnership or equivalent in Sweden.

There are 2 ways you can get a CNI:

- [go to the UK and post notice with a UK registrar](https://www.gov.uk/marriage-abroad/y/sweden/uk/partner_local/same_sex)
- [go to Sweden and post notice at the embassy or consulate there](https://www.gov.uk/marriage-abroad/y/sweden/ceremony_country/partner_local/same_sex)

%If you choose to post notice, you’ll normally have to wait at least 13 days for your CNI. It can take longer depending on the local authorities’ processes and the time of year.%
