Pueblo County Clerk & Recorder's Recording Fees - Effective July 01, 2025
(Notice: Fees updated on July 01, 2025)
Attention Recording Partners and Citizens:
- Document recording fees will change to a flat fee of $43 July 1, 2025.
- Per-page fees will no longer be charged, regardless of document length.
- The change is a result of Colorado HB 24-1269.
- Recording of Death Records in Pueblo County, no cost.
The Colorado Legislature approved legislation last year to increase document recording fees for the first time in more than 20 years. Beginning July 1, 2025, a flat fee of $43 will replace current, variable fees that often incur charges for multiple pages. Additionally, recording documents related to someone's death in Pueblo County, will no longer be subject to a fee.
For many years, Colorado set a fee of $13 to record the first page of a document and $5 for each additional page. This payment structure made budgeting tough to predict, made calculating costs difficult for customers, and required County staff to spend hours counting pages. Modernizing recording fees will make budgeting and revenue projection easier for County Clerks across the State. For questions regarding the new fee structure, please contact the Recording Office.
