MARRIAGE LICENSE REQUIREMENTS FOR PALM BEACH COUNTY.

You do not have to be a resident of Florida to apply for a marriage license; however, both parties
must be present when applying. One of the following forms of identification is required for each
party to obtain a marriage license:
  •    Driver's license issued in the United States;
  •    Federal or state identification card; or
  •    Passport showing your name and date of birth.

   Birth certificates or green cards are not acceptable. A blood test is not required.

If either party was married before, the manner in which the last marriage ended and the exact
date the marriage ended are required.  Copies of the death certificate or Final Decree of Divorce,
Dissolution or Annulment are not required.   

Applicants who are 16 or 17 years of age: In addition to the above listed requirements, the
following documents must be presented when one or both of the applicants are within this age
bracket:  
  • Minor's birth certificate showing parent's name.  
  • A parental consent form may be obtained at the time of the application. Both parents must
    be present with their own identification on hand. The exception will be if the parents are
    divorced and one parent has full custody of the minor. In this case, proof of custody must
    be presented and only the consent of the custodial parent will be required in writing.

Applicants under 16 years of age: Minors who, under oath, swear that they are the parents or
expected parents of a child may apply for a marriage license. If they are already parents, the
child's birth certificate must be presented. Otherwise, the pregnancy must be verified by a written
statement from a licensed physician.

A previously married minor may apply without the need for parental consent.   

The cost of a license is $93.50. Residents of the State of Florida have the option of attending a
premarital course from a registered provider, or waiting three days, as Florida law requires, for
the marriage license to become effective. A directory of premarital course providers is available at
all court locations. If a certificate of completion is provided at the time of application, you will
receive a cost reduction of $32.50 and the three-day waiting period will be waived.

If one applicant is a Florida resident and the other is not, they may both attend the course to
receive the full benefit. If only the Florida resident attends the course, the three-day waiting period
will still be required.
