Official online records

How to search Clark County Recorder records online

The official Recorder search is much more flexible than a basic owner-name lookup. It supports searches by name, parcel number, instrument number, document type, book/page, record date, total value and legal description.

Open the official Clark County Recorder search. Go directly to recorderecomm.clarkcountynv.gov. Avoid entering sensitive information into an unrelated commercial records site when the county provides its own index.

Use the strongest identifier you already have. An instrument number is usually the fastest route to one specific document. If you do not have it, use the owner’s last name, company name or parcel number.

Narrow broad name searches. Add a first name, recording-date range or document type when a common surname returns many entries. For a company, use the company-name option rather than forcing the business name into a person’s first/last-name fields.

Verify the result before relying on it. Compare the document type, party names, parcel number, instrument number, recording date, legal description and other index details. A matching surname alone is not enough to prove you found the correct property document.

Order the document if you need its actual contents. Clark County states that original recorded-document images are not freely viewable through the public index. If the summary identifies the correct instrument, purchase the document copy through the Recorder’s ordering system.

Recently recorded something? Clark County states that documents become searchable after they are indexed. The Recorder’s FAQ says indexing generally takes about 1–3 days, depending on workload.

Address → APN → document

How to search Recorder records when you only have a street address

One of the most common points of confusion is trying to type a street address directly into a Recorder name search. The Recorder’s own search interface directs users who need an address search to the Clark County Assessor.

Open the official Assessor real-property search. Visit the Clark County Assessor Real Property Search.

Choose Address. Search using the property street number and street name. If the exact format fails, shorten the street entry and try again.

Open the correct parcel and copy its APN. Clark County uses an 11-digit Assessor Parcel Number. Confirm the situs address and owner information before copying the number.

Return to the Recorder’s parcel search. Open the official Recorder Parcel # search and enter the APN.

Filter the resulting recorded documents. Limit by date or document type when necessary. This is useful when one parcel has years of deeds, trust deeds, releases, easements, liens and other recordings.

Best practice: use the Assessor for the parcel identity and the Recorder for the legal recording history. The Assessor’s parcel map is an assessment tool and does not replace a recorded deed, plat or professional boundary survey.

What the Recorder maintains

Common Clark County recorded documents you can search

The Recorder maintains a broad official-record index. Property owners most often search for the following document types:

Deeds

Documents transferring or evidencing interests in real property, including recorded conveyance documents.

Deeds of trust

Recorded financing documents commonly associated with a Nevada real-estate loan.

Reconveyances

Documents often searched when checking whether a previously recorded deed of trust has been reconveyed.

Liens

Various recorded lien documents, releases and related filings indexed by the Recorder.

Homestead declarations

Recorded declarations of homestead and related public recording information.

Recorded maps

Subdivision, parcel, survey and other maps that are legally entitled or required to be recorded.

Easements

Recorded easements and right-of-way documents affecting interests in real property.

Notices of default

Recorded default/breach notices associated with deeds of trust and foreclosure procedures.

Mining records

Clark County also maintains certain mining-related records, notices and associated documents.

A Recorder search is not a legal title opinion. Finding or not finding one document does not establish clear title or determine the legal effect, priority or enforceability of a recorded instrument. For a transaction or title dispute, use an appropriate title professional or Nevada attorney.

Plain and certified copies

How to order a Clark County recorded document copy

Anyone may purchase a copy of an official record that has been recorded with the Clark County Recorder. The county offers online, in-person and mail ordering.

Fastest workflow: order online

Open the Recorder document system. Go to the official online Recorder portal.

Create an account or log in. A public records search can be used to identify the document. Ordering through the system requires an account and checkout process.

Search for the document. Use the parcel number, instrument number or party name. If possible, use an instrument number because it identifies a specific recorded document.

Add the correct document to the cart. Review the parties, recording date and instrument number again before ordering.

Select certified status when needed. Choose a certified copy during the ordering process if the receiving agency, court, lender or other organization specifically requires certification.

Complete payment and choose delivery. Clark County states that emailed PDFs are generally sent within 1–2 business days. Domestic paper copies sent by standard USPS should generally be allowed 7–10 business days; international delivery can take longer.

Before you submit a document

How to record a document with the Clark County Recorder

A document that is legally valid for your purpose can still be rejected for recording when basic Recorder requirements are missing. Clark County identifies incorrect payment, formatting problems, missing APNs, illegibility and missing document information among its common causes of delay.

11-digit parcel number: required on many land-related documents and placed at the upper-left area of the first page.

3 × 3-inch blank area: leave space in the upper-right corner of the first page for the recording label.

Readable document: text must be sufficiently clear to produce a legible permanent record.

Printed names: names should be printed or typed beneath signatures where required.

Notary acknowledgement: many deeds, mortgages, leases, liens and other documents require notarization.

Return address: clearly identify the name and address to which the recorded document should be returned.

Mail tax statements address: required on documents transferring title.

Legal description: include the required legal description on documents transferring real property.

Correct formatting: follow the Recorder’s paper, margin, ink, font and attachment standards.

Correct fee: verify the current charge before submitting the document.

Micro step-by-step recording workflow

Identify the exact document you intend to record. Recorder employees cannot decide which legal form you need or prepare it for you. If the correct instrument is uncertain, obtain legal or title assistance before submission.

Find the property’s 11-digit APN. Use the Clark County Assessor and verify the address before placing the APN on a land document.

Review the county’s current recording requirements. Open the official Recordation Process and Requirements page and check your document against every applicable requirement.

Confirm notarization and legal-description requirements. Do this before travelling to the office. Clark County specifically notes that the Recorder does not provide notary services on site.

Calculate the correct recording fee. Use the Recorder fee page and any applicable Real Property Transfer Tax resources.

Submit using an allowed method. Depending on document type and eligibility, recording may be handled at the main office, certain branches, by mail or through approved electronic recording methods.

The Recorder cannot give legal advice. Clark County states that Recorder personnel are prohibited from advising which form you need, interpreting a document’s legal effect or determining the legal rights of the parties.

Property-record monitoring

Use Clark County’s Recording Notification Service

The Recorder’s Recording Notification Service (RNS) can send an email alert when a document is recorded using a name or parcel number that you enrolled.

What to monitor

Register relevant variations of your name and your parcel number where possible. Clark County recommends monitoring both because not every name or APN necessarily appears in every recording index.

What an alert means

An alert means the system matched a new recording to enrolled information. The notice provides an instrument number that you can use in the Recorder search.

RNS is an alert service, not a recording block. It does not prevent someone from presenting a recordable document, and Clark County does not guarantee that the service will identify every document connected with a property.

When a search fails

Why you cannot find a Clark County recorded document

Practical fixes for common Recorder search problems
Problem	Likely reason	What to do next
Street address returns nothing	The Recorder is not primarily an address-search system.	Search the Assessor by address, copy the 11-digit APN, then search the Recorder by parcel number.
Too many owner-name results	The name is common or the date range is too broad.	Add a first name, date range or document-type filter, then verify the parcel and legal description.
New recording is missing	The instrument may not be indexed yet.	Allow for the Recorder’s stated indexing period of roughly 1–3 days, then search again.
You found the index but not the actual document	Original document images are not freely displayed in the public search.	Order the document through the Recorder’s online copy system or obtain it through an office.
Owner name differs from what you expected	You may be viewing an older instrument, trust/company ownership or a different parcel.	Match APN, legal description, recording date and document sequence rather than relying only on a name.
You are looking for a marriage record	Marriage records are not maintained by the Recorder.	Use the Clark County Clerk marriage-record search.

Recorder vs other county offices

Do not confuse recorded ownership with tax or assessment records

Several Clark County systems can show information connected with the same property, but each answers a different question.

Clark County property-record routing
Need	Correct office	Use it for

Owner display, parcel number or assessed value	County Assessor	Real-property records, APNs, addresses, assessment information and parcel maps.
Property-tax bill or payment	County Treasurer	Tax balances, installments, payments and tax account information.
Marriage certificate	County Clerk	Marriage records, marriage licenses and certified proof of marriage.
Divorce decree	Family Court	Divorce case information and copies of divorce decrees.
