Each Autonomous Community has its own register and its own requirements, which means that the rights attaching to registration <strong>vary depending on where you register<\/strong>. This surprises many foreign couples, who expect a uniform national framework.<\/p>\n<p>A further point matters a great deal in practice: a partnership registered in another country is not automatically equivalent to a Spanish registered partnership, and a United Kingdom civil partnership in particular has no automatic equivalence in Spain. Whether it is recognised, and with what effects, has to be assessed case by case.<\/p>\n<h2>What a civil partnership does not give you<\/h2>\n<p>Registration confers certain rights, which differ between regions, in areas such as residence permits, social security, tenancy succession and public sector benefits. But three limits are worth stating plainly.<\/p>\n<p>Registered partners <strong>have no automatic inheritance rights<\/strong> in most of Spain: unless a will provides otherwise, the survivor may inherit nothing. Registration <strong>does not create a matrimonial property regime<\/strong>, so each partner&#8217;s assets remain their own unless a cohabitation agreement provides otherwise. And a registered partnership <strong>does not give rise to a compensatory allowance<\/strong> on separation in the way that marriage does, although compensation may be claimed in specific circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>Where there are children, their position is identical to that of children of married parents: see <a href=\"https:\/\/palomazabalgo.com\/en\/paternal-filial-measures\/\">parental measures<\/a>. On the succession point, see <a href=\"https:\/\/palomazabalgo.com\/en\/wills\/\">wills<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/palomazabalgo.com\/en\/inheritance\/\">inheritance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243;
