The Custody Contract serves as a legally binding agreement under Danish law that formalizes the arrangements between parents or legal guardians regarding the care and custody of their children. This document is essential when parents separate, divorce, or need to establish clear custody arrangements, whether the custody is joint or sole. The contract must comply with the Danish Parental Responsibility Act (Forældreansvarsloven) and related legislation, ensuring that all arrangements prioritize the child's best interests. It typically includes comprehensive details about custody rights, visitation schedules, decision-making authority, financial responsibilities, and procedures for handling disputes. The document can be used both in amicable situations where parents agree on terms and as part of court proceedings where official intervention is needed. It provides a clear framework for all aspects of child custody and care, helping prevent future misunderstandings and conflicts.
