Georgia Marriage Laws

ID Requirement: Two valid forms of id such as drivers license, birth certificate, U. S. passport, Armed Forces ID card, or Resident Alien ID card. Applicants will also be asked to fill out a brief form.

Residency Requirement: Do not have to be a resident of Georgia. However, if not a resident, you must apply in the county where the marriage is to be performed.

Pre-marital Education: Cobb County offers a free Marital Workshop called "Focus On Forever". It is a skill-based non-religious workshop designed to address issues concerning communication and listening skills, anger management, and financial planning. Contact the Cobb County Superior Court for more information.

Application Requirement: Both the bride and groom must appear in person at the time of applying.

Previous Marriage: If divorced within six months, you will need to show a copy of your divorce decree.

Waiting Period: No waiting period.

Fees: Approximately $26.00+. Some counties will only accept cash.

Other Tests: The bride must have a Rubella test. Both the bride and groom must submit a valid blood test on Georgia Form 3411 which must be signed by a licensed physician or the County Health Department. The blood tests are valid for 30 days. Depending on the lab, blood test results may be received from 2 hours to 7 days.

Under 18: If you are 16 or 17 years old, you may apply if accompanied by both parents who have given written consent. If the bride is pregnant, no parental consent is required if you submit a statement from a licensed physician certifying that the bride is pregnant. If underage applicants already have a child, they should present a certified copy of the birth certificate for the child at the time of application. If parental consent is not required, the court will notify parents or guardians that you have been issued a marriage license. There is an additional fee of $1.00 per letter.

Proxy Marriages: No.

Cousin Marriages: Yes.

Common Law Marriages: Yes.

Officiant: Any minister who is authorized by his or her church may perform marriages. Ministers must complete a certificate of marriage and return it to the ordinary within 30 days after the marriage.

Valid: License has no specified time frame. The license can only be used within the State of Georgia.
