Yes. Delaware recognizes out-of-state legal unions that impose "substantially similar rights, benefits, protections, responsibilities" as a Delaware civil union. An Oregon state registered domestic partnership is substantially similar to a Delaware civil union and, therefore, is recognized by the state of Delaware as a civil union.§ 213. Legal unions performed in other jurisdictions. A legal union between two individuals of the same sex that was validly formed in another jurisdiction, regardless of whether such legal union is recognized under chapter 1 of this title or is referred to as a civil union, shall be recognized as a validly established civil union under this chapter for all purposes of the laws of this State, provided that the legal union meets the eligibility requirements of § 202 of this chapter for a civil union and such legal union affords to and imposes on the parties thereto substantially similar rights, benefits, protections, responsibilities and duties as those afforded to and imposed on parties to a civil union entered into in this State under this chapter.
