In Nebraska, the County Clerk issues marriage licenses (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 42-104) and, in most counties, records deeds as ex officio register of deeds (§ 23-1502) — 17 counties have a separate Register of Deeds or Assessor/Register of Deeds. The Clerk registers voters except where the county has an election commissioner (§ 32-218), and the County Treasurer titles vehicles (§ 60-144). Birth & death certificates come from Nebraska DHHS Vital Records →, and trade names are registered with the Secretary of State (§ 87-210).
The requirements shown are set at the state level and apply throughout Nebraska. This office's specific fees, hours, and accepted payment methods have not been independently verified. Contact them directly using the information above before you go.
