Nevada Death Records

To begin, add a death record or view a list of locations and resources for Nevada death records.

Death records in Nevada are a valuable but often hard to locate source of information. In Nevada, the department in charge of keeping death records is the Office of Vital Statistics. This office maintains archives of records dating back to 1911. Even older death records may be available but only by consulting with the County Recorder in the county where the death occurred.

Other states allow orders on a walk-in, fax-in, and even phone-in basis, but the Office of Vital Statistics only directly allows for mail-in requests, which can frequently take weeks to process. However, internet public records finders may be able to offer Nevada death records online at a much faster pace, which makes them a convenient way to find what you're looking for.

Nevada death certificates and records may be accessed at the state office from the year 1911 to the present. If you need information on earlier deaths, you will be directed to the County Recorder in the county where death occurred. There is a fee of $10.00, which may be paid with either check or money order. You will need to provide photo ID and possibly information that will prove your eligibility to receive the information you ask for. For more information visit: Nevada State Health Division
