Reproduction of Records and Fees

The Division will copy up to 50 two-sided pages of records at no charge for requests for Official State Records and there is no charge for governmental entities. However, maps, bound reports and copies over 50 pages must be sent to a local approved copy center, (Nevada Blue) in Carson City. At the Division’s discretion, copy jobs of maps, bound reports and copies over 50 pages may be taken to a local copy center with arrangements for the copy center to pick-up and return records within 5 business days from the date picked up. The Division will inform the requestor if a copy job needs to be sent to a local copy center. In this manner, the requestor must establish an account, arrange for pick up and approve cost associated with the copy request prior to files being released. There will be no charges applied to requests to scan records to an electronic format although electronic copies may be obtained in person only with a sealed, new in package thumb drive. In accordance with NRS 239.052, a copy of the Division policy governing copy charges shall be posted in the main receipt areas of the Carson City and Las Vegas offices.
