Public Records in Nevada

Nevada public records are governed by the Nevada Public Records 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, Nevada maintains extensive public databases across its 17 counties. Nevada is a popular incorporation state, and the Secretary of State maintains one of the most-searched business and UCC registries in the country alongside county-level court and property portals. Whether you're conducting a background check, researching property history, or verifying business information, the resources below provide direct access to official Nevada public records.

What you can find
  • Property and real estate records
  • Court records (civil, criminal, and probate)
  • Business filings and corporate registrations
  • Vital records (birth, death, marriage, divorce)
  • UCC liens and secured filings
  • Professional licenses and notary commissions
How to access Nevada public records

Most Nevada public records can be accessed online through state agency portals like the Nevada State Library, Archives and Public Records and the Nevada Office of Vital Records, or through individual county clerk websites. For records not published online, agencies accept written requests under the Nevada Public 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.
