Wyoming Marriage License Fee & Waiting Period

Wyoming sets a statewide marriage license fee of $30, established by statute and collected by the County Clerk's office. This fee is uniform across all counties in the state and does not vary by county. There is no waiting period in Wyoming; a marriage license can be used immediately upon issuance. However, couples should confirm current validity practices with their county clerk's office before relying on the license, as specific guidance on how promptly a license must be used may vary by county practice.

Wyoming law does not establish a statutory expiration date for marriage licenses. Couples are advised to use the license promptly and to contact the county clerk's office where they obtained the license to confirm the expected timeframe for using it and any local practices regarding license validity. The state requires two witnesses to be present at the marriage ceremony.

Where the fee is actually set

In most states the marriage-license fee is set by the county, not the legislature, so a single statewide number can be wrong for you. The license document itself is issued by the county clerk — that office’s own fee schedule is the authoritative source for the current amount and any waiting period.
