Marriage licenses are issued during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, 7:30am to 4:30pm. The County Clerk’s Office is located in Room 108 on the first floor of the County-City Building, 555 S. 10th Street (corner of 10th & “K” Streets), Lincoln, NE.

The fee for a marriage license is $15 and it can only be used for ceremonies performed within the State of Nebraska. Applicants may also prepay for a certified copy for an additional $5. A certified copy is required for name changes and other legal purposes. Payment can be made by cash, check or debit/credit card.

Effective August 30, 2015, the fee for a Nebraska marriage license will be $25. Certified copies will be $9.00 each.

Parking is available in the public lot (accessible via 10th Street or “K” Street) located across the street north of the County-City Building. Be sure to obtain a parking pass at the Clerk’s Office which will allow you to exit the public lot for free.
