Records Requests
Accessible Documents
Consistent with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title II final rule, individuals are entitled to request an accessible version of any electronic document presented on this website that is inaccessible.
Please email [email protected] with the document title, the desired file type, and the accommodation needed. The requested file will be provided within 5-7 business days. However, some requests may take longer due to the size, complexity, or the graphical nature of the respective document.
For additional information, please contact [email protected] with any questions or concerns about this process.
Public Information Act (PIA) Requests
The Maryland Public Information Act (PIA) gives broad access to public documents while safeguarding legitimate state interests and individual citizens' privacy rights.
The PIA grants you the right to review the available records that are disclosable and to obtain copies of those records. It does not require an agency to answer informational questions or to create a record to satisfy your request.
Please note that some PIA requests may take up to 30 days to process. If fees are associated with the request, you will receive an estimate of costs, which must be collected before the request is fulfilled.
PIA Request Submissions
To submit a records request under Maryland's Public Information Act (Maryland Annotated Code, General Provisions Article, Title 4), please email [email protected] with specific details. This is the preferred method for PIA submissions.
Requests may also be mailed to our Headquarters, but this may cause a delayed response. The 30 day turnaround time will commence once SDAT has received the mailed request. Mail your PIA requests to:
Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation
700 E. Pratt St. Suite 2700
Baltimore, MD 21202-6377

SDAT is unable to process bulked information requests at this time. However, most of our public data can be obtained for a fee by contacting our vendor, SpecPrint, for assistance with your request.
