OPIR fulfills public information requests under the following definition:

"Public Information" means information prepared, owned, used, or retained by a public agency relating to the transaction of official business, regardless of form, except for confidential information that must be protected against public disclosure under applicable law.

Please note: OPIR provides records/documents maintained or recorded by a state agency. The Office of Public Information Requests (OPIR) is the designated contact for executive branch agencies supported by OPIR. To request public records/information, please click on this link:  https://mt-pir.arkcase.us/pir/portal/reading-room [mt-pir.arkcase.us].

All public information requests we handle must be submitted using one of these methods.

To request information from an agency not on the OPIR agency list, you must contact the agency's designated contact.

Specific Person or Property Requests: A request for information about a specific person or property (such as a request for records of an application, vital record, license, permit, or registration) should not be made using this form. Such information may be requested directly from the agency that maintains the record.
