Requesting For Marriage Records Alabama

By Claire Dowell


When two people fall deeply into love and want to take their relationship to the next level, marriage is the answer. It is indeed an essential and celebrated milestone in any person's life. Nevertheless, because it entails a life-long responsibility and commitment, trust must be established as it will be the very foundation of the relationship. Without this, the marriage could turn out chaotic and worse, end up terminated. Building trust is not as easy as you spell it. You have to consider a lot of things and a thorough decision-making must be done before you could decide to entrust your life with the other person. Aside from the impact it has to the people involved in it, it could also influence societal, economic, legal and demographic matters.

To document the couple's vows bound by love, trust and commitment, a marriage certificate is made. This attests the couple's decision to commit their lives to one another. Documents on marriage are considered vital records. Vital records, marriage registers for instance, are usually housed in the Department of Health and is maintained by this department's Bureau of Vital Records and Statistics.

Because vital records in the state of Alabama are not restricted, anyone in the general public can request access to such archives. To do so, an request form must be procured and completed. All the information required in the form must be provided. Details such as the couple's complete names, the wife's complete maiden name, the date and the county where the event took place are requisite. Your name, address, and your reason for the record retrieval must also be indicated.

Because a marriage decree is a legal record, a process must be followed when you wish to obtain Alabama marriage records. First, secure an application form. This can be acquired through the said department in person or directly through their online portal. Such form must be duly accomplished with the significant details requisite. The full legal names of the husband and wife, the wife's maiden name, the date and the county where the tying of the knot took place, the county where the license was issued and your personal details as the requester must be provided. These include your full name, your address where you want the marriage record to be mailed and a phone number where you can be reached at.

Again, each copy of an Alabama marriage record costs $15. To get another copy of the same marriage document at the same time, an additional $6 must be paid. Payment should be made through check or money order only. Otherwise, it will not be accepted and your request will not be processed. In case the record you filed an entreaty for is not found in their database, you will be issued a document called "Certificate of Failure to Find". However, even if the marriage register you requested is not located, the fees will no longer be refunded. They retain to be payment for the search per se.

Over the years, countless efforts have been made by both the government and private sectors to make the process of procuring marriage records free public records fast and easy. Thus, public record repositories are already available online. With this modern approach, you can already place your order in the comfort of your own home and expect the record you requested to be delivered to you in no time.
