Civil status: Once the partnership has been dissolved, your civil status changes to ‹dissolved partnership›.
Division of assets: In registered partnerships, the partners' assets are generally considered to be separate: at the moment of dissolution, each partner keeps their own assets. The partner who keeps the items that were bought together has to pay for the other partner's share of the item. NB: If you and your ex-partner have entered into an agreement to pool your assets, you will have to agree on how to divide them up.
Paying maintenance: In principle, after a registered partnership is dissolved, each person has to support themselves. If necessary, however, a partner who reduced their working hours or stopped working altogether as a result of the division of tasks during the registered partnership is entitled to be paid maintenance until such time as they are able to support themselves again.
Taxes: After the dissolution of the domestic partnership, the partners pay taxes separately.
·OASI(AHV/AVS) and occupational pensions: Each partner receives half of the old-age and survivors' insurance (OASI) and occupational pension fund assets accumulated during their partnership.
Children: If one of the partners has children, the court may decide that the other partner should continue to see them after the partnership has ended. NB: if you have adopted your partner's child, you automatically have rights of access to the child.
Succession: With the dissolution of the partnership, the two partners no longer have any right to inherit from each other.
