How to record a document in Morgan County, Georgia

1. Prepare the document so it meets Morgan County formatting rules (legal description, grantee address, signature block, and the blank margin the recorder reserves for its stamp).
2. Notarize it if the instrument requires acknowledgment — most deeds and affidavits do.
3. Submit electronically through Simplifile, CSC, or by mail to Clerk of Superior Court, Morgan County at P.O. Box 551, Madison, GA 30650 (physical: 384 Hancock St., Madison, GA 30650).
4. Pay the recording fee ($25.00 flat (deeds/security deeds) per O.C.G.A. §15-6-77 (statewide, HB 288 eff. 1/1/2020) first / None — Georgia uses a flat statewide fee regardless of page count add'l (+$2.00 per cross-reference (statewide); county-specific rider fee unverified)).
5. Receive the recorded instrument back with its book/page or instrument number as proof of record.
