“A court in Poland was incorrect in a decision not to recognize a marriage between two Polish citizens in Germany, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) ruled on Tuesday. The Polish court did not recognize the marriage as Polish law prohibits same-sex unions. ‘Refusing to recognize a marriage between two Union citizens, is contrary to EU law because it infringes [the] freedom and the right to respect for private and family life,’ the ECJ said. The courts were addressing the case of a Polish couple living in Berlin who married there in 2018 but upon moving to Poland had their application to register their marriage certificate denied ‘on the ground that Polish law does not allow marriage between persons of the same sex,’ the ECJ statement said.” (11/25/25)
