The conditions include:

• It is important that parents respect the child's position in accordance with their age and maturity.

• The child remains in one domicile but will be registered as residing with both parents, i.e. one of the homes is the legal domicile and the other is the residence home of the child.

• Parents are expected to live in the same municipality as a child attends one school or preschool. The residence of parents in the same municipality is not an unconditional requirement, in some cases it may be a nearby municipality.

• Parents who make an agreement about a shared residence of a child must be able to cooperate in matters concerning the child.
