CERTIFIED COPIES ARE FREE for Military personnel and authorized persons on their behalf. DD214 should be recorded upon separation in the Recorder's Office of the county you reside. You must present a notarized MISSOURI REQUEST FORM to receive your free certified copy of your DD214. This requirement is to insure only you or an authorized party has access to your personal information." The form. The page links the Recorders Association of Missouri's request form (one record per form; the veteran's identifiers; the requester's authority; a notary's signature). Fees. The Recorder's fee list prices real estate pages, plats, tax liens and their releases ($7.50 for a federal release, which is a lien, not a discharge), marriage licences, copies and passports, and has no line for a DD-214.
