Register of Deeds Notice
The Register of Deeds office is open, but in-person services should only be used as a last resort. To obtain a marriage license or be sworn-in as a notary public, you must come in person. Otherwise, most of our services are available from home. If you need a birth, death, or marriage certificate, simply click here to purchase one, and we will mail it directly to you. If you have questions about getting a copy of a deed, please give us a call or email us. To search our database of property records dating back to the 1700s, click here.
If you need in-person services, we ask that you only come in if you are not sick and that you wear a mask. We promise that only healthy staff are allowed to serve you.
Information about obtaining Military Discharges
Military Discharges may be registered at no charge in the Buncombe County Register of Deeds Office. Certified copies of registered discharges are also issued in person at no charge.
In accordance with North Carolina General Statute 47-113.2, the parties authorized to access discharge documents are limited to the following:
The North Carolina General Assembly limits access to Military Discharges due to the sensitive nature of these documents. Access to discharges which have been on record for over 80 years is not restricted.
