Document Recording
Recording and Filing fees are governed by Wisconsin Statutes and are uniform throughout the State.
Documents received between 8:00AM – 3:30PM are recorded the same day they are received.
Tag-Less & SWIFT Recording System:
The Register of Deeds office has moved to a tag-less recording system. A tag-less system means the paper document sent in for recording will no longer have a recording stamp placed on it and will be electronically returned with a recording stamp by SWIFT. Please see the below full terms explanation and the agreement to sign and submit.
