An act relating to marriage license fees

This bill increases the fee for obtaining a marriage license in Vermont from $60 to $75. The change directly affects couples applying for marriage licenses and the town clerks who issue them. Under the new provisions, $15 of the fee would be kept by the town clerk while $60 would go to the Domestic and Sexual Violence Special Fund. The bill also requires town clerks to submit quarterly reports to the State Treasurer detailing all fees collected. These changes are set to take effect on July 1, 2023.
