Back to all statesKansas public records are governed by the Kansas Open Records Act (KORA), 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, Kansas maintains extensive public databases across its 105 counties. Kansas district courts publish case records through individual county portals, and the Secretary of State centralizes business and UCC filings. Whether you're conducting a background check, researching property history, or verifying business information, the resources below provide direct access to official Kansas public records.
Most Kansas public records can be accessed online through state agency portals like the Kansas State Historical Society and the Kansas Office of Vital Statistics, or through individual county clerk websites. For records not published online, agencies accept written requests under the Kansas Open Records 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.
