H 6 Vermont House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An act relating to marriage license fees

This bill (H.6) permanently maintains the 2023 increase to Vermont marriage license fees, which raised the total fee from $60 to $80. The change keeps $15 for town clerks and directs $50 to the Domestic and Sexual Violence Special Fund. It removes a temporary expiration date (sunset) that would have ended the fee increase after July 2025, making the higher fees permanent. The bill directly affects individuals applying for marriage licenses and the fund supporting domestic violence services.
