It is easy for one to obtain a record of their divorce in California. Like other US states, the divorce record is considered as public record and as such the information is available for anybody. For those interested in obtaining a copy of the divorce decree, it is important to know whether they are eligible for an authorized copy or limited to informational copies of the divorce decree.

An authorized copy is one that is certified and can be used as supporting document for spousal or child support and other related things. People who are eligible for an authorized copy are those parties named in the decree, their parents/relatives, domestic partner, an attorney acting in behalf of the registrant, a licensed adoption agency, law enforcement agency and a person who requires such record in the performance of his job. An informational copy contains the same information that an authorized copy has. However, a statement is printed on the copy stating that the report is for informational purpose only and is not a valid document. An authorized copy holds more power than an informational copy.

For those who want to obtain divorce records, they can visit the State's Vital Records or CDPH vital records division. The Office cannot issue a certified copy of the divorce; however, they can issue a Certificate of Record which contains information such as the parties named in the divorce proceeding, case number and the county where the record is filed. The certificate does not include any information pertaining to the result of the proceeding. Records available include divorces from 1962 up until June 1984.

To request for a Certificate of Record, download the pamphlet available from the CDPH site. Follow the instruction guide and complete the requirements needed. Fees vary and are non-refundable. The Office will issue a certificate of No Public Records if there are no records found. Payments for the copy should be included with the request. Payments can be made via money order or checks that are drawn from a US bank. Money orders issued by the USPS are also accepted. Processing time can exceed six months depending on the request volume.

Those who want a certified copy of their divorce can do so by making a mail request to the California Superior Court. One can also make an in person request, as the court does not accept phone requests. Fees vary from one county to another. In Alameda County for example, a divorce record search of more than 15 minutes will cost one $15. Certified copies of the divorce report also cost $15. For those who are on a tight budget, they can do an in person search and check out the records themselves. For a more convenient and hassle-free record search, one can check out online sites that do offer public records searches. This is the most convenient way for one to get hold of records without having to wait for the processing time that requesting from the county court needs.
