How to search Mississippi UCC records

  1. Open the UCC Filing Portal and choose "Lien Search" under Additional Options.
  2. Search by debtor to see basic creditor and debtor information for each filed document.
  3. To view the filed UCC documents themselves, sign up for the UCC subscription service.

Good to know in Mississippi: The state moved to a new UCC portal, and logins from the old portal don't work. Everyone has to create a new account to file or subscribe.

Reading the results

Each result is a financing statement: a lender (the secured party) telling the public it has a claim on some of a business's property (the debtor's collateral). Open a filing to see who the lender is, when it was filed, when it lapses, and what property it covers. Later filings on the same record, such as amendments, continuations and terminations, show whether the claim is still live.

A filing usually lasts five years unless the lender continues it. A termination means the lender has released its claim. For more on what these filings mean, see what a UCC filing is and our UCC search guide.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to file a UCC-1 in Mississippi?

$8. UCC1 paid online, plus the e-gov portal's convenience fee. By mail it's $10, plus $3 with attachments and $4 for each additional debtor.

What name should I search?

Search the debtor's exact legal name as it appears on its state business record, including "LLC" or "Inc." if your search needs it. Lenders file under that name, so a nickname or brand name can miss the filing. Check the name on our Mississippi business search guide first.

A financing statement generally lasts five years from the date it was filed. The lender can extend it by filing a continuation in the six months before it lapses.
