Clark County Recorder of Deeds: Military Discharge Recording

Mo. Rev. Stat. 59.480 makes the recording of a discharge free and limits who may see or copy it; see the Missouri entry. The Recorder's page says the office "records real estate transfers, deeds of trust, power of attorney, survey, tax liens and military discharges", and its recording standards list "Military separation papers" among the documents exempt from the formatting rules, so no $25 non-standard fee applies. Copies of a discharge go only to the veteran or an authorized party on the Recorders Association of Missouri's notarized request; the page posts no form, so ask the office. Marriage licences. The page prices a marriage licence at $57 and a certified copy at $9, and lists "Military Certified Copy - Free". It also lets an applicant who cannot appear because of military service apply through an Affidavit of Absent Applicant. Where. Recorder of Deeds Melissa Bevans, Clark County Courthouse, 111 E. Court Street, Suite 130, Kahoka, MO 63445; 660-727-8261; [email protected]. The Commission's service officer also holds his monthly Clark County day in this office.
