There have been several aspects of the registered partnership which have been subject of controversy.

One of them is the information on the marital status which is shown in the Czech identity documents. Whereas married people's identity card shows that person is "married", homosexual people living in registered partnership status have "registered" in their cards, which is an immediate way to know about a person's sexual orientation.

The inclusion of identity card details in CV's and applicant forms is unavoidable in most cases, as it's almost the norm to request such information in the Czech Republic. This forces people who live in a registered partnership status to disclose their sexual orientation whatever form they are to submit. - For this reason, the vast majority of homosexual people living with a stable partner prefer not to get registered. Hence the low number of gay unions since the law was passed, in comparison to the countries where gay marriage is legal and grants equal rights for everyone.

Another point of criticism is child adoption. Homosexual couples don't have the right to adopt in the Czech republic according to the current legistlation. Heterosexual marriages and single persons are enabled to do so, but homosexual people who live in registered partnerships cannot adopt children individually as single parents, which means "confirmed" homosexual people can't adopt children even out of their relationship. This implies that, not homosexual couples, but homosexual individuals are denied some their rights because of their sexual orientation.

Registered partnership in the Czech RepublicRecognition of same-sex unions in the Czech Republic – First of all for consistency with other relating articles. Also because of the fact that this article does not only talk about the registered partnerships in Czechia but also includes a section on same-sex marriage, so the new title would be more appropriate. 2607:FEA8:559F:FA30:3453:806E:BFD1:1121 (talk) 20:33, 10 December 2017 (UTC) --Relisting.
