Boston City Hall Registry Division

Vital Records and Marriage Licenses

The Registry Division, located in Room 213 of Boston City Hall, is the primary custodian of birth, death, and marriage records for the city. This office is the essential stop for couples planning to wed in Boston, as they must file their marriage intentions here in person. The division issues certified copies of vital records which are necessary for legal identification, passports, and genealogy research. The Registry maintains records dating back to 1630, serving as a vital link to Boston's history while providing efficient modern services. 📜💍

Visiting Policy

Currently, the Registry Division operates strictly by appointment for filing marriage intentions; walk-ins are generally not accepted for this service. Couples must schedule their visit online in advance. For picking up certified copies of birth, death, or marriage certificates, the office is open to the public during business hours, though online ordering is encouraged to save time. Payment for services can be made via credit card, debit card, or money order, with specific requirements for marriage ceremony fees which may require cash. đŸ’ŗđŸ‘Žu200dâ™‚ī¸

  • Marriage: Both parties must appear in person to file intentions.
  • Certificates: Official copies with raised seals for legal use.
  • Online: Most records can be ordered through the city's website.
