Forms in Michigan

One thing state government has never been short on is paperwork. And while Michigan's Secretary of State certainly can't be accused of being a slouch in that area, the department has done a great job of making almost all forms accessible online. This means you can print them out at home, fill them out, and collect all the little bits and pieces of information you'll need to complete your transaction at a Secretary of State branch office.

All the online forms are in Adobe PDF format. To view them, you will need Adobe's free Reader software, which is easy to download and install. With it, you can open the Secretary of State forms, save them to your computer, and print them.

The department also has taken advantage of newer technology that allows users to fill out some of the paperwork on their home computers and e-mail it directly to the Secretary of State, allowing you to avoid branch office lines completely.

The general forms page has every available form in one location. It's organized by topic. So if you're not sure what you're looking for or just feel like browsing, this is the place to go.

If you can be a little more specific, each division of the Secretary of State has its own page of relevant forms.
