Before you start

PLEASE BE ADVISED THE COUNTY CLERK/RECORDER'S OFFICE CAN ONLY ACCEPT PAYMENT IN THE FOLLOWING FORMS: CHECK, MONEY ORDER OR CASH. NO DEBIT OR CREDIT CARDS [17]
Marriage license information and requirements (opens in a new tab)[18]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

Appointments · New marriage license — standard in-person application
Licenses will be issued by appointment only. Please call 223-6468 Monday-Friday, 8am to 5pm, to make an appointment. Appointments will be limited to 9:30, 10:30 & 11:30 on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. [21]

If either party has a previous marriage that ended in dissolution/divorce or annulment within the last year a copy of the final judgment for dissolution/divorce or annulment must be provided at the time the license is purchased. [22]
FBN / DBA filing instructions (opens in a new tab)[32]Official instructions

Complete, print and sign the form, then mail or bring it to the Clerk with payment. The office accepts cash, check or money order. Use the current state publication rule below instead of the page’s older 30-day paragraph.

Before you start

Payments · Filing payment
Pay by cash, check or money order; this page does not accept debit or credit cards. [34]
Deadlines · Initial filing — state deadline
File within 40 days after starting business under the fictitious name. [23]
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. [24]
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. [25]
Information & documents · Newspaper notice — publication frequency
Publish once a week for four successive weeks. [26]
Deadlines · After publication — file the affidavit
File the publication affidavit with the County Clerk within 45 days after publication is completed. Check whether your newspaper files it for you. [27]
Deadlines · Expiration — earlier changes or abandonment can end the statement
A statement generally lasts five years, but changes or abandonment can end it earlier. [28]
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. [29]

Provide the street address and county of the principal business location. A registrant’s separate mailing-address rule does not remove this requirement. [30]
Information & documents · Individual registrant — owner mailing address

Search the official Recorder index (opens in a new tab)[36]Online service

Availability · Linked-name document list — stated coverage
After opening a document and selecting a linked name, the portal says the resulting document list covers recording dates from 1991 onward. This is not a claim that every historical record is online. [38]
Information & documents · Ordering — regular versus certified copies
Choose Regular or Certified separately for each document number. Recalculate the order to see the provider’s stated total before choosing whether to check out. [39]
