Marriage License Overview
To get a Florida marriage license, the couple you need to:
- Appear in person at the clerk's office
- Present valid photo id (driver's license/state ID, passport, military ID, or alien registration card)
- Know your social security number (the card is not neccessary)
- Be at least 18 years old to marry without parental consent

Fees & Discounts
The fee for a Florida marriage license is $93.50. Florid couples who attend an approved premarital course qualify for a reduced fee of $61.00. Couples must provide the certificate of completion to the clerk at the time of their application to receive the discount.
Marriage License Use & Restrictions
After a marriage license is issued, there is a 3-day waiting period before it becomes effective and the couple can be married. Couples that take a premarital course skip the waiting period. If both individuals are non-Florida residents, there is not a waiting period. The marriage license will expire 60 days from the date it was issued. The license must be returned to the clerk's office within 10 days after the ceremony has been concluded.
