Getting a Marriage License in Kerr County
The Kerr County Clerk is in Suite 122 at 700 Main Street in Kerrville. The license costs $81, payable by cash or card. You can begin the form through the online portal linked by the clerk, but that alone does not issue the license.
Both applicants ordinarily visit with accepted proof of age and identity and their Social Security numbers, if any. If an adult cannot appear, call 830-792-2255 about the absent-applicant affidavit and required proof. Do not assume both people can skip the visit.
The usual wait is 72 hours after the license is issued. Active-duty military, qualifying Defense Department work, a qualifying premarital course, or a written judicial waiver can remove that wait. Ask the clerk what proof is needed. The ceremony must occur before the license expires at 90 days.
Arrange your own officiant. After the completed license returns to the issuing clerk, that county is also the place to request a certified copy.
