Records Request Form
The New Jersey Records Request Form is a document used to request access to records maintained by the State of New Jersey. The form enables individuals and organizations to request publicly-available records from any state agency, board, bureau, commission, department, independent authority, instrumentality, or public body. There are three types of New Jersey Records Request Forms: the General Records Request Form, the Open Public Records Act (OPERA) Request Form, and the Right to Know (RTL) Law Request Form. The General Records Request Form is used to request records that are not subject to the OPERA or RTL laws. The OPERA Request Form is used to request records that are subject to the OPERA law. The RTL Request Form is used to request records that are subject to the RTL law. All three forms require the requester to provide their name, address, telephone number, and email address. The General Records Request Form also requires the requester to provide the name of the agency, if known, the date the request is made, and a description of the records requested. The OPERA and RTL Request Forms require the requester to provide the date the request is made, a description of the records requested, and the records' custodian’s name, if known. All three forms must be signed and dated by the requester.
