Marriage Records Practical

Getting married in Navarro County starts at the clerk's window

Marriage license errands in Navarro County start with the County Clerk's Civil Department, in the courthouse basement at 300 West 3rd Avenue in Corsicana. The clerk handles marriage licenses and declarations of informal marriage. Both people come in person, and the office uses appointments, so call before making the trip.

Texas has a 72-hour wait before the ceremony unless a waiver fits. Bring photo ID. If you need a certified copy later for a name change or passport, ask the Navarro County Clerk. DSHS can verify a record, but it does not issue the local certified copy.
