Welcome to the Oakland County Clerk/Register of Deeds Web Site/clerkrod/assets/images/ruth_homepage3.jpg

While our office is dedicated to paperwork, we know our job is people. With that goal in mind, our office will be open on Saturday, March 27 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. as part of Passport Day in the USA.  In addition to passport applications, we will offer many other services that day, including on-the-spot copies of birth and death records as well as deeds and other property documents.  We will be accepting concealed pistol license applications that day and fingerprinting will also be available at the Oakland County Sheriff's Office during those hours.  (For a full list of CPL requirements, please visit the Vital Records CPL section of our website.) 

Please take a moment to learn about our new online services, which may save you time, money and a trip to the Oakland County Court House.  Our new Mobile Office may be coming to a neighborhood near you.  For more information, also take a glance at our Clerk's Winter Newsletter. As always, our goal is providing the best service at the lowest possible cost.
