TO OBTAIN A MARRIAGE LICENSE IN BARNES COUNTY

You must apply for a Marriage License at the Office of County Recorder on the second floor in the Barnes County Courthouse.

If either party has been married or divorced, we need to have a certified copy of the Divorce decree, which must be attached to our application for a license. Parties must have proof of their birth date and SS number, their Drivers License will work, or they may use their Birth Certificate. They must be 18 to apply, if not a parent or guardian must be present to sign an application. The Marriage License is good for 60 days.
