Fremont County Recorder, Iowa

Attn: Hunters

To our deer hunters:
Several of you have stopped by to purchase your tags already, and we thank you for that! We have had an abundance of people this year needing to update their Land Owner Tenant information, as the DNR has removed their privileges after doing investigative work.

The Recorders Office CANNOT update this for you. Please get a new parcel ID number from the Assessor's office and call the Iowa DNR at (833) 759-9797 to update your information. If you have sold land, no longer rent the land you may have hunted on, or even moved counties, we encourage you to check your Land Owner Tenant status on your Go Outdoors Iowa account before you come in.

You can find additional information about Land Owner Tenant information here:

📚 Post 9: What Does the Recorder’s Office Do?

So…what exactly does the County Recorder’s Office do?

As you can see, the answer is: a lot!

From recording real estate documents and preserving public records to issuing vital records, processing marriage applications, registering recreational vehicles, selling hunting and fishing licenses, providing passport services, recording military documents, and helping with genealogy research — our office touches many different parts of our community.

A lot of what we do happens behind the scenes. You may only see us for a few minutes when you stop in to renew a registration or pick up a document, but there are rules, regulations, research, recordkeeping, and attention to detail happening behind that counter every day.

Our goal is to provide accurate, reliable, and helpful service to the people of our county — whether you’re buying a house, getting married, planning a vacation, heading out hunting, researching your family tree, or simply trying to track down an important document.

We’re proud of the work we do, and we’re proud to serve our community. ❤️

Sharing the good news!!

OWN PROPERTY IN IOWA? READ THIS!

A new statewide property notification system is coming to Iowa, and there’s something you can do RIGHT NOW to make getting signed up easier when it launches!

WHAT’S COMING?
Iowa is preparing to launch a FREE statewide system that will allow property owners to receive notifications when documents are recorded that may affect their property.

AND IT’S STATEWIDE!
You’ll be able to sign up for notifications on property you own in any and all Iowa counties — you won’t be limited to just one county.

SO WHAT CAN YOU DO NOW?
Head over to IowaLandRecords.org and create your FREE Iowa Land Records account!

WHY SIGN UP NOW?
Having your account already set up will make the registration process much smoother for you — and for the Iowa Land Records staff — once the notification system is ready.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOU SIGN UP?
Once you create your Iowa Land Records account, Iowa Land Records will email you when the property notification system is ready for you to register.

ONE IMPORTANT NOTE!
The property notification system is NOT available yet! It is currently in the testing phase, with plans to roll it out to the public this month.

Creating your Iowa Land Records account now is simply a way to get ahead of the game and be ready when the new system launches.

FREE account
Statewide access
Get notified when registration opens
Be ready for the rollout

Get your account set up today at IowaLandRecords.org!

Have questions? Give your County Recorder’s Office a call — we’re happy to help!

A few minutes now can make the process much easier later!

Strange but true. Missouri is literally asking anglers to chop the heads off these invasive fish, put them in a plastic bag, and throw them in the trash. The Northern Snakehead fish is a threat to many Missouri fish, including sport fish like bass, according to MDC.
