The article addresses the issue of fulfilling all mandatory conditions for the existence of marriage concluded under the provisions regulating the formation of the so-called "concordat marriage." The author highlights the problem of correctly applying the prerequisite of the declaration of intent by the intending spouses to produce civil effects in a religiously contracted marriage. Employing a formal-dogmatic method and referring to views expressed in legal doctrine, the author attempts to present irregularities and legal gaps resulting from legislative shortcomings. Attention is drawn to the lack of appropriate statutory regulations allowing for the proper application and enforcement of the obligation of the intending spouses to make a declaration
