Idaho UCC search

The Idaho Secretary of State, UCC and Liens keeps Idaho's UCC filings: the notices lenders file to claim a business's assets. Search them by business and see each filing's status, dates and parties, with the source on every result.

What Idaho's UCC records include

The fields a Clerkfield lien search returns for Idaho.

  • File number
  • Debtor names with city and state
  • Lender (secured party) names with city and state
  • Lien type, when it is not a standard UCC filing
  • Filing date and lapse date
  • Status (active or lapsed)

Not in Idaho's free records

No filing history.

Search by lender

Not in Idaho: search by the business's name.

How to search Idaho UCC filings by hand

The state's own search is at sosbiz.idaho.gov. The state lists $3 per non-certified search; exempt users avoid the fee by logging in, and certified searches are ordered through a copy request.

  1. Open the SOSBiz UCC search at sosbiz.idaho.gov/search/ucc.
  2. Type the debtor's name; include lapsed filings if you want older ones.
  3. Read the file number, lender, filing date and lapse date in the list.
  4. Open the filing to see its continuations, amendments and terminations.

Idaho specifics

01

Clerkfield reads the free result list, which has no filing history and only city and state for each party.

02

A termination doesn't take a filing out of Idaho's index: it stays until a year after its lapse date. Clerkfield's Idaho list shows no history, so open the filing on SOSBiz to see whether it was terminated.

03

The state sells all UCC and lien data every other Monday as tab-delimited files for $125 per download, without collateral details.

04

Clerkfield searches Idaho liens by debtor only, not by lender.

Check the business behind the lien

Before you rely on a lien search, confirm the business is registered and active in Idaho.
