Requirements
- Complete a Marriage Education Discount (MED) approved course
- 6 hours of education OR 3 hours of counseling with an approved provider
- Obtain an MED completion code from your provider
- Your county clerk must operate an online marriage application system. The discount is not available in every Utah county.
- Complete the course no more than one year before, and at least 14 days before, the day your license is issued
Two qualification paths are available. Utah has recodified its marriage statutes, so section numbers published elsewhere may be out of date. Confirm the current rule and whether your county qualifies with your county clerk.
Step-by-Step Guide
