Fulton County (Atlanta) issues marriage licenses through its Probate Court rather than a clerk’s office, and offers a substantial discount for a premarital education course.
| License fee | $68.50, reduced to $28.50 with a qualifying premarital education course certificate. |
|---|---|
| Waiting period | None — Georgia has no statewide waiting period. |
| Documents / ID required | Valid photo ID for both applicants. |
| License validity | No expiration date (Georgia statewide rule) — the license can be held until you’re ready to marry. |
| Where & how to apply | Both applicants appear together in person at the Fulton County Probate Court, 136 Pryor Street SW, 2nd Floor, Atlanta. |
| Office hours | Standard weekday business hours; confirm with the Probate Court before visiting. |
