German term or phrase: Kämmereischein
In a German-language entry from a Danish church register, the pastor records a marriage in 1817. In the final column under "Anmærkninger" [=Remarks], it says: "Kämmereyschein ist eingeliefert." Is this some sort of marriage license that was required?

cashier's receipt
Explanation:
Kämmerei is cashier's or treasurer's department, so I'm guessing they had to submit a receipt for the marriage fee.
