Thank you for using the Chesterfield Circuit Court Clerk's automated marriage license application program. Please complete your application in its entirety and ensure that all information is accurate to the best of your knowledge.

IMPORTANT: Complete Your Application Before Scheduling an Appointment

Please do not schedule a marriage license appointment until you have completed and submitted your online marriage license application. After your application has been successfully submitted, you may use the appointment scheduling link below to select an available date and time.

If you submit an application and later discover a data entry error, do not submit another application. Please bring any corrections to the attention of Clerk’s Office staff during your marriage license appointment.

Marriage License Appointment

After submitting your online application, both parties must appear in person in the Record Room of the Chesterfield Circuit Court Clerk's Office. Appointments are required.

Please note that this is not simply a license pick-up. During your appointment, both parties will be required to:

• Provide valid unexpired photo ID, such as a driver’s license or passport. Expired identification cannot be accepted.
• Answer a brief set of questions to verify the information provided on the application
• Pay the required marriage license fee
• Take an oath administered by the Clerk or Deputy Clerk affirming that the information provided is true and complete to the best of your knowledge

When Should I Schedule My Appointment?

You may schedule your marriage license appointment for a date that is convenient for you. However, please keep in mind that once the marriage license is issued, it is valid for sixty (60) calendar days.

Your marriage ceremony must take place within those 60 days. If the marriage does not occur within that timeframe, a new marriage license application must be submitted and additional fees will apply.

Officiating Services

Officiating services are available by appointment only and are scheduled separately from your marriage license appointment.

Submitting a marriage license application or scheduling a marriage license appointment does not automatically schedule an officiating appointment.
