According to an article in the Prague Post a law allowing same-sex partnership registration, in the Czech Republic, goes into effect today.
Although Czech President Václav Klaus refused to ratify it, he did not veto it.
Klaus said he opposes the law, which passed in 2006, because he feels it will complicate family law. But he said he will not use his veto powers to return it to Parliament, where it would require a three-fifths majority to pass.
That means he is, de facto, allowing the law.
Foreigners will also be able to register their same-sex partnerships as long as they have residency permits.
