Obtaining copies of recorded documents.

Chamber Passed·1/23/26

Indiana HB1311 regulates fees for copying public records and electronic maps, and restricts the use of certain lists of names and addresses.

Indiana HB1311 amends the state's public records law to establish guidelines for fees charged by public agencies for copying documents and electronic maps. The bill specifies that public agencies may charge fees for copying documents, with a maximum fee of $5 per document for certification and $0.10 per page for copies. For electronic maps, fees must be based on the agency's direct costs. The bill also prohibits public agencies from charging fees for inspecting public records and mandates that agencies provide copies of public records upon request.
