Ordering Marriage Certificate 


This Office records the marriage certificate which is proof that a marriage ceremony was performed in Clark County. The marriage official who performs the ceremony has ten days to submit the marriage certificate to this office for recording.  Normally a certified copy of the certificate would be available one day after the certificate has been received from the official.

Types of Certificates:

MARRIAGE ABSTRACT - A marriage abstract is a certified document that is used for most U.S. agencies and some foreign countries. < view sample>

CERTIFIED COPY - A certified copy of a marriage certificate is a copy of the original certificate.  This certificate may be needed for the Catholic Church, prison visitations, adoptions and some foreign countries. < view sample>
