$100 Recording Fee Increase Effective July 25, 2021
The fee to record most documents in Washington State will increase by $100.00, effective July 25, 2021. The first-page fee will be $203.50 for most documents*.
This increase is at the direction of HB 1277, passed during the 2021 legislative session. The surcharge will fund state and local programs that promote housing stability and eviction prevention services.
The portion of the recording fee retained by the county to fund the recording function remains unchanged since the 80’s at $5 for the first page plus $1 for each page thereafter.
Certain documents types are exempt from this increase:
Assignment of Deed of Trust
Appointment, Substitution, or Resignation of Trustee
Recorded marriage, birth, death records
Liens and Releases recorded by state, city, county, or a water/sewer district
Federal tax liens and releases
