How to Request Your Report

  1. Identify the responding agency

    Your report is held by the agency that responded — in most Green Cove Springs incidents, Green Cove Springs Police Department. Check any paperwork, citation, or exchange-of-information slip from the scene; it names the agency and often a report number.

  2. Choose your request route

    For traffic crash reports handled by state police, Florida offers an official request process. For local incidents, contact the agency's records division directly, in person, by mail, or through its online portal if one exists. Requests are made under the Chapter 119 Public Records.

  3. Provide identifying details

    You will need the date and location of the incident, names of involved parties, and the report or case number if you have one. Bring photo ID; some agencies require it for unredacted copies.

  4. Pay the copy fee

    Florida state agencies charge $10 for crash report copies; local departments set their own fees, typically in a similar range. Reports are typically available ~10 days after crash.

How long until my Green Cove Springs report is available?

What is the difference between a crash report and an incident report?
