W Kodeksie prawa kanonicznego zawarto informacje nt. kwalifikacji niezbędnych do bycia świadkiem bierzmowania. Są to: ukończenie 16 lat, bycie katolikiem, bierzmowanym i przyjęcie sakramentu Najświętszej Eucharystii oraz prowadzenie życia zgodnego z wiarą i odpowiadającego funkcji, jaką ma pełnić. Osoba taka powinna być wolna od jakiejkolwiek kary kanonicznej, zgodnie z prawem wymierzonej lub deklarowanej. Świadek bierzmowania nie jest zatem „figurantem”, ale osobą uprzywilejowaną, która dostępuje zaszczytu towarzyszenia młodemu człowiekowi na drodze doskonałości chrześcijańskiej. Stąd świadków bierzmowania również należy duszpastersko przygotować do liturgii i pełnienia obowiązków wiary, wśród których najistotniejsze dotyczą podjętych zobowiązań wobec bierzmowanego i odpowiedzialności za jego życie religijne.

The Code of Canon Law gives such a definition of Confirmation: “The sacrament of confirmation strengthens the baptized and obliges them more firmly to be witnesses of Christ by word and deed and to spread and defend the faith. It imprints a character, enriches by the gift of the Holy Spirit the baptized continuing on the path of Christian initiation, and binds them more perfectly to the Church”. The Code gives also qualifications necessary for being a confirmation sponsor: “have completed the sixteenth year of age, be a Catholic who has been confirmed and has already received the most holy sacrament of the Eucharist and who leads a life of faith in keeping with the function to be taken on, not be bound by any canonical penalty”. Sponsor for Confirmation is not a „figurehead”, but a favoured person, which is honoured to accompany a young man in his way to Christian perfection. Therefore, it is important to prepare sponsor to the ceremony as well as to undertake all duties towards newly confirmed, especially regarding his growth in faith.

The main theological issues faced in the works on Ordo Confirmationis included: definition of the sacramental sign of Confirmation, i.e. its substance and sacramental formula, the main effect of Confirmation, which is the Gift of the Holy Spirit as well as the relation of the sacrament to baptism and the Eucharist. Confirmation was unequivocally recognized as the second sacrament of Christian initiation. Pastoral problems referred to ministers, recipients and witnesses of Confirmation. Presbyters were granted wider rights to administer Confirmation, while godparents were allowed to become witnesses and the Conferences of Bishops could define the age of recipients as other than that of 7 years.
