- Mayor Rafał Trzaskowski said the first copy of the marriage certificate was completed without delay at Warsaw City Hall on Thursday.
- In November 2025, the Court of Justice of the European Union required Poland to recognize same-sex marriages from other EU countries, and since then the Supreme Administrative Court has ordered transcriptions for seven couples in total.
- A future government regulation is intended to standardize transcriptions nationwide, has been signed by Krzysztof Gawkowski, and a countersignature by Marcin Kierwiński was announced for the coming days.
- The transcription does not change the fact that same-sex marriages and civil partnerships remain illegal in Poland, and it does not fully resolve issues such as inheritance, taxation, and access to medical data.
for the years of rejection and humiliation— Donald Tusk, Prime Minister; he apologized to same-sex couples and urged officials to respect the dignity of every person.
