Shirley was one of the most amazing people I have ever encountered in my life. Some of the online systems weren’t working and she went above and beyond to help us. She was joyful, and wonderfully pleasant! 10/10 would county clerk again.

The Deschutes County Clerk's Office has nothing to do with the Courts. The Clerk's Office is responsible for elections administration; recording of real property; issuing marriage licenses, municipal business licenses, and passports (appointments only); and managing Board of Property Tax Appeals. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and professional.
