Age Requirements
Applicants (18) years of age or over do not require parental consent to have a civil union in Connecticut.

Exact Name
Full legal name is required. No abbreviations, nicknames or initials. The information for the civil union license should appear as it does on your birth certificate, unless your name has been legally changed (i.e. previous marriage, civil union, court order name change).

Proof of Residency
If you are applying for the license in the town of residency, bring a government issued ID showing current residence. This can be a driver's license, state issued ID card or lease agreement. This is especially important if you are applying for the license in a town different than the where the ceremony is being held.
