Norwalk Town Clerk Records

The Norwalk Town Clerk is the primary local office for vital records and public documents. Birth certificates, death records, and marriage licenses for events in Norwalk are filed here. City Hall is at 125 East Avenue, Norwalk, CT 06851. Call (203) 854-7700 for general information. The town clerk also keeps land records, maps, and trade name filings. Walk-in hours are the best time to get certified copies of records.

Norwalk uses the title "Town Clerk" instead of "City Clerk," which is common in Connecticut. The function is the same. Under CGS Section 7-51, every town clerk in the state must maintain vital records and send copies to the state Department of Public Health. So if the Norwalk office cannot help you, the state office in Hartford may have what you need.
