For eligible citations, the fine amount owed will be displayed on the Municipal Court of Atlanta's website. If eligible, the ticket must be paid prior to your court date and time. The fine amount must be paid in full. If the citation is paid in full by the business day before your scheduled court date, you do not need to attend court.

 

If you are unable to pay the fine amount in full, you must appear in court before a judge for possible payment options/alternatives. For citations that are ineligible for online payments, the fine amount will be set by a judge on your court date.                                                                                 

 

Online: Municipal Court of Atlanta Pay Only Portal


The Court accepts the following forms of payment: AMERICAN EXPRESS, DISCOVER, VISA, MASTERCARD, money orders (mail & in person) and cash (in person only).     
                                                                 
For probation payments, please contact Judicial Correction Services at (404) 591-3180.

 

Please be advised, paying a citation online is the same as entering a Guilty Plea. For certain driving offenses, a Guilty Plea will impact your driver’s license.  

 

A Guilty Plea can be reported to the Department of Driver Services (DDS) and, for certain driving offenses, the following can occur:

  • Points issued on your driver’s license. A driver’s license with 15 points in a 24-month period will be suspended.
  • Mandatory driver’s license suspension.

 

NOTE: If you hold a Commercial Driver’s License, please contact DDS before paying your fine online.

 

If you are paying a Failure to Appear (FTA) fine online, the record will be electronically transmitted to DDS within 48 hours of the case being closed online.
