The Ulster County Clerk's Office acts as custodian of the records for Ulster County.  We oversee records dating back to 1658 including deeds, mortgages, judgments, liens, maps, civil and criminal actions. Yearly, hundreds of people search, file and record land records, legal documents, and court papers in the office.

The County Clerk’s Office also manages the Department of Motor Vehicles, administers the Oath of Allegiance to new citizens, processes passport and notary applications, and maintains the County Archives, as well as providing services for businesses and veterans.
