How a Ohio UCC search works

UCC filings are made at the state level, and Ohio Secretary of State keeps the record for Ohio. There is no single national database. Perfecta searches Ohio's records directly, or every state it covers at once, so you don't have to learn each state's search page.

Common questions

How do I search UCC filings in Ohio?

Type the debtor's name into the search bar at the top of this page. Perfecta looks it up in Ohio's records at that moment and lists each filing with its status, filing date and lapse date.

Is a Perfecta search the same as a certified Ohio UCC search?

No. Perfecta is a fast first look at what is on file. For a loan, a payoff or a closing, order a certified search from Ohio Secretary of State.

Where does the Ohio data come from?

Perfecta reads Ohio's own public records live each time you search, so results reflect what the state shows at that moment. Nothing is stored in advance.
