Introduction

Same-sex marriage is a marriage between persons of the same sex. The registration of a marriage establishes the couple of different specificity: the right to joint property, the right to alimony , the right to inheritance , social and medical insurance , preferential taxation and crediting , the right to name, the right not to testify in court against a spouse, the right to act a trustee of behalf of a spouse in the event of his incapacity due to health, the right to dispose of the body in case of death of a spouse, the right to joint parenting and foster care and other rights, which denied unmarried couples.
