Guam Public Records Free List Online

By Christopher Evans


The process of obtaining public documents is really nothing new to some individuals. In the US, the number of people trying to acquire copies of vital reports is quite significant, but few seldom hear about other individuals attempting to access public documents from the island of Guam. But like those in the US, the government of Guam has a central agency that is responsible for storing, maintaining, and disseminating Guam public records to the general populace. And similar to all government agencies in the mainland, there are policies that all requesters must observe.

The Office of Vital Statistics in the island is being supervised by the Guam Department of Public Health and Social Services. It is the central office of all vital documents in the island, with the exemption of divorce decrees. The Office of Vital Statistics is in charge of the proper storage and maintenance of the records, as well as its dissemination to the public. There are two basic ways to submit a request, through mail or in person. Furthermore, fees are only accepted in money order form, which is payable to Treasurer of Guam. Personal checks are not valid, unless it is an on-island check.

Unlike birth certificates, death reports, and marriage licenses, divorce decrees are only available at the Clerk of Superior Court of Guam. If you wish to access divorce records in Guam, this is the first government office you should call or visit. Bear in mind that this office also has its own policies in place, which may differ from what the Office of Vital Statistics has put up in their jurisdiction. To know more about the procedures, requirements and the other services being offered, you can visit the official website of the Guam Department of Public Health and Social Services.

Unfortunately though, when dealing with government agencies, there are times when the time consuming procedures and uncompromising bureaucracies are just too much for any ordinary citizen. In times like these, it would be more practical to simply go with a private record retrieval service that is just as capable in providing vital documents as any government office. Almost every kind of data nowadays is obtainable through online means. If you wish to access virtually any type of information, all you will need is an Internet connection and a dependable online source.

If you want to make sure that you are getting a dependable online record retrieval service, many record search websites offer free trials that you can check out. Most of the online record services these days don't require third party programs that you have to install on your computer, so taking advantage of the free trials is actually not that difficult. If you decide that the service is comprehensive enough, then you can start thinking about committing to that particular record provider.

When you become familiar with the service, you can start deciding whether or not you want to fully acquire the services that the record retrieval website has to offer. A one-time payment option will be available to those looking to run searches quite frequently. This way, every time you perform a public records online search, you won't have to worry about fees and extra charges. Unlimited access in exchange for one-time payment is actually a reasonable option for someone who does background research on almost a daily basis.
