In general, guardianship can be acquired in two ways: either by assumption as the biological parents or through a court order. Legal guardianship is considered to be binding until the death of the guardian, the authority is terminated by court order or the child reaches the age of majority.

However, it should be noted that there are different types of guardianship, some of which can be granted on a temporary basis even if the primary guardian has not relinquished authority over the child.
