It depends on the laws in the jurisdiction where the domestic partnerships was registered. Usually, the process involves signing an affidavit and serving a copy of the affidavit on the other party, then providing proof of that service to the clerk and paying a fee. Notably, it is more difficult to dissolve a domestic partnership registered with the State of California.
