North Dakota Public Records

• Where can I find, in North Dakota, access to a business?
  The North Dakota Secretary of State has a free business search. It also shows companies that have been inactive for a year or less. You can search the database by the entity's name or owner's name. These are recorded/information of businesses registered with this department; other permits or licenses are not part of the search results.

• Can the public get arrest records from the North Dakota Attorney General's criminal record check?
  It depends on whether you are planning on turning in fingerprints. Otherwise, you will get a name-based search, which can include people who share the same name. Certain employers ask for a fingerprint-based search as a pre-hire requirement.

• Where can I find, in North Dakota, access to the results of a will that went through probate?
  In probate, wills are generally part of the court record and available to the public, similar to other court files, except you may need to request it from a separate probate clerk. While the person is still alive, wills are not public records; they are considered private. Each jurisdiction has its process, which can differ from one to another. The North Dakota Supreme court offers a public webpage that summarizes ND's probate process and familiarity with the administration of an estate.
