Copies of marriage certificates or divorce/annulment decrees are generally filed in the city, county, or other local office where the event occurred. This program identifies the information commonly required in order to request these documents. Because of the vast number of possible offices where marriage and divorce/annulment records may be obtained, this program does not provide a listing of such addresses.
To obtain the appropriate address, refer to a telephone book or call directory assistance for the locale where the event occurred. For your reference, libraries have copies of phone books from other cities.
When you call the local records office, you should request the following information:
- the appropriate address;
- the applicable fee and acceptable form of payment; and
- information regarding to whom payment should be made.
Once you have obtained this information, you can prepare the letter requesting a marriage certificate or a divorce/ annulment decree.
