Back to all statesConnecticut public records are governed by the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act, which gives residents and the public the right to access government documents and records. From property ownership and court records to business filings and vital statistics, Connecticut maintains extensive public databases across its 8 counties. Connecticut abolished county government in 1960, so most records — including land records and vital statistics — are maintained at the town or state level rather than by counties. Whether you're conducting a background check, researching property history, or verifying business information, the resources below provide direct access to official Connecticut public records.
Most Connecticut public records can be accessed online through state agency portals like the Connecticut State Library and the Connecticut Department of Public Health, or through individual county clerk websites. For records not published online, agencies accept written requests under the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act — usually by mail or email — and must respond within the statutory deadline. Certified copies of vital records and court documents typically require a small fee and proof of identity.

Connecticut's Business One Stop returns entity status, entity type, registered agent, principal and officer details, and annual report status. The portal was modernized onto the CT.gov platform, and older records sometimes carry over with incomplete officer data. Searches match on the legal name; trade names are registered at the town level and won't appear here.
