Marriage Officiant Registration

* Areas Greyed out are prior Covid-19.

* Areas with Red Text are Covid-19 Changes.

New York State Law requires any person who performs a Marriage Ceremony within the City of New York to register with the City Clerk. Registration is done in our Manhattan office located at 141 Worth Street, New York, NY 10013.

If you are planning to wed anywhere within the five boroughs of New York City, you should ask the person who is performing your Marriage Ceremony if they have registered.

The registration requirement does not apply to Marriage Ceremonies performed anywhere else in the State of New York.
