A marriage license is vital if you want to prove the validity of your marriage. Whether you are buying property jointly or separately, many agencies will ask for a marriage certificate as they review your credit history. Marriage records also come in handy whenever you want to file your tax returns. If you have some joint accounts, various agencies will require sufficient proof of marriage. If you are a spouse of a foreigner, these documents will help you to clarify your status at the immigration department. In addition, life insurance companies require the proof of marriage before they include a partner in the policy.
Most states in the US make marriage records available online. However, Arizona does not make marriage records available on the state level. In Arizona, you’ll need to access a county website or agency in order to obtain marriage records. For example, in Maricopa county, you can order marriage records online. Another example is Puma county, where you can order these Arizona marriage records online.
Third party databases have different methods of acquiring information, and you may be able to find marriage records through these private databases. In most cases these websites require that you know the first name, last name, and the state in which the marriage took place. If these third party databases do not have the information that you are seeking, then you’ll need to look at the county level as suggested in the prior paragraph.

Steve, you will want to contact the Department of Health in the state you live in for marriage verification. Marriage certificates are registered the Arizona Department of Health Services. This can be verified in person, online or over the phone typically. Since you are immediate family and your brother is incapacitated then you should be able to obtain this information relatively easy. The AZDHS phone number is 602-542-1025
Sirs, I am attempting to ascertain if my brother is married or not to his current co-habitant person. He is currently fighting cancer and complications from his treatments have left him in a non-verbal capacity. He told us prior that they had obtained a marriage certificate but had not completed a ceremony. This was prior to his present incapacity. The other person is stating she is his wife but will not provide any proof of this. We need to find out truth so we can help provide his health care and obtain possible power of attorney if necessary. Can you help guide me to get this information? Thank You.
Eugene, unfortunately we don’t have all the Arizona marriage information you’ve requested. That being said, you can reach out to the Arizona Department of Health Services and request a copy of your Arizona marriage certificate. Since you are the spouse of the person you’re requesting records, it will make this request simple. Just go to their site and fill out the request form for an Arizona marriage certificate and pay the small fee. You will probably need to show identification.
