General Information

The Register of Deeds office provides a standardized, permanent record of real estate ownership and transfers in Union County, as well as issuance and safekeeping of vital records documents.  This site only contains requests for vital records documents.

If you are requesting a certified copy of your marriage license and have recently been married, please do not request a copy until 10 days after your marriage date.

Charges will apply when ordering vital records. Please note the information below:

        • Requestor must be 18 years of age or older
        • There are no refunds
        • Records are available back to 1913 for births and deaths and 1842 for marriage licenses
        • Requests for information can be completed online and will be processed on normal business days during normal business hours (Monday-Friday 8:00 AM-5:00 PM).
        • For requests submitted after 3:30 pm, the earliest that a request can be processed and sent is the next business day.

The Register of Deeds office acts as a recording office only. North Carolina General Statutes specifically prohibit the Register of Deeds or the staff from practicing law. We are unable to supply legal forms, provide instructions on drafting or completing forms, or answer questions regarding the legal consequences of instruments filed. We advise you to consult an attorney if you have any legal questions.
