non-residents. Marriage license requirements include age of applicants must be at least 18 years old and the couple must appear in person to obtain a
license. A picture-type I.D. with the date of birth must be provided (driver's license, passport).

*   Licenses are issued immediately and must be used within sixty (60) days from the "effective date."

*   Marriage Licenses may be obtained Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5 p.m., excluding legal holidays. The administration in Collier County is
located at the corner of Airport Road and Highway 41; in Lee County the administration Building is at 2115 Second Street, downtown Ft. Myers. (directions
for Collier and Lee Counties to the right)

Marriage Licenses may be obtained from any Florida County administration Office.

OTHER MARRIAGE LICENSE REQUIREMENTS: 1) For Florida residents there is a three (3) day waiting period from the date of the marriage license issuance
OR to waive the three day waiting period you may choose to attend a premarital class and present a certification of attendance to the marriage clerk at the
time of application. 2) If only one of the couple is a Florida resident and the Florida resident takes the course, there is no waiting period.
3) If both parties are out of state residents, there is no waiting period. 4) If either party was married before, a copy of the final judgment of the divorce or death
certificate is required if you have been divorced within the last two years.

FEE: A Marriage license costs $93.80 (cash only). The only exception is for Florida residents that have provided proof of a premarital class their fee is
reduced.
