How to Search Wyoming Recorded Documents (Start Here)

Recorded documents in Wyoming — deeds, mortgages, liens, plats, and other land records — are filed with the County Clerk in each county.

What this page covers: Wyoming recorded document searches — deeds, mortgages, assignments, liens, plats, and other instruments filed in the public land records. What it does not cover: Property valuations or tax data (those are on the Property Records page).

Where to start: Go to the County Clerk in the county where the property is located. Many county county clerks offer online document search by grantor/grantee name, book/page, or instrument number.

Common mistake: Recorded documents show what was filed — they do not confirm current ownership or lien status without a full title search. A deed in the index does not mean it is the most recent transfer.

Five Things People Get Wrong About Wyoming Recorded Documents

❌ Myth: "All UCC filings are at the Wyoming county."
✓ Truth: False. Most UCC filings (Article 9) are at the Wyoming Secretary of State, not county.
❌ Myth: "All liens show up in a deed search."
✓ Truth: False. Federal tax liens may file at county OR state. Judgment liens vary. Always cross-check.
❌ Myth: "Recording a deed transfers title."
✓ Truth: False. The deed transfers title when delivered. Recording gives public notice — important but different.
❌ Myth: "DD-214 is only federal."
✓ Truth: Partially false. The original is federal (NPRC), but many veterans record a copy at their Wyoming county for easy access.
❌ Myth: "Old Wyoming recorded docs are fully digitized."
✓ Truth: False. Most Wyoming counties only digitized records back to ~1990-2000. Older docs are paper at the courthouse.
