Justice of the Peace Courts are single-person judicial bodies located in small or medium-sized municipalities that do not have their own Civil Registry. Dependent on the Ministry of Justice and coordinated by the judge of first instance of the corresponding judicial district, they act as delegated civil registries in their locality. Births, civil marriages, deaths and other vital events occurring in the municipality are registered in them. For remote procedures without travelling to the town, it is recommended to use the services of specialised agencies, which manage the application directly with the corresponding Justice of the Peace Court professionally and securely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
