[23]
Marriage license information and requirements (opens in a new tab)[24]Official instructions

Official county instructions for obtaining a new marriage license. Online application entry alone does not issue a license or replace the required appearance; confirm the license type, documents and visit arrangements.

Before you start

Make an appointment with the County Clerk’s Office [28]
Information & documents · New marriage license — standard in-person application
Bring a current picture identification, such as a driver’s license [29]
FBN / DBA filing instructions (opens in a new tab)[39]Official instructions

Read the Clerk’s statement requirements, obtain the form and review the filing fees. A request to research an existing name is separate from filing a new statement.

Before you start

Deadlines · Initial filing — state deadline
File within 40 days after starting business under the fictitious name. [30]
Eligibility & access · Where to file — principal place of business
File in the county of your principal California business location. If you have no California business location, file in Sacramento County. [31]
Deadlines · New or changed filing — newspaper publication
Start publication within 45 days after filing. Use a qualifying newspaper in the filing county, or an adjoining county if no qualifying newspaper exists there. [32]

Deadlines · Expiration — earlier changes or abandonment can end the statement
A statement generally lasts five years, but changes or abandonment can end it earlier. [35]
Eligibility & access · No-change renewal — publication exception
An unchanged renewal filed within 40 days after expiration does not need republication. Changes can require a new publication. [36]
Information & documents · California principal business location
Provide the street address and county of the principal business location. A registrant’s separate mailing-address rule does not remove this requirement. [37]
