4:00p.m. (Pacific Time) each day by all Government Agencies.
Submissions will be processed by the County of Riverside Monday through
Friday, excluding County Holidays. Submissions on Saturdays, Sundays, and
County Holidays are unacceptable and will be rejected by our office.
B.2 Types of Documents and Processing Timeframes

Documents submitted will be recorded and returned daily on a First In – First Out (FIFO)
basis and will receive a time stamp of 8:00a.m.
b) Daily Documents
Documents submitted under this category will be recorded on a FIFO basis and will
receive a time stamp of the real time receipted; however any documents in the daily
queue not processed the day they were electronically received will be processed within
three business days thereafter.
B.3 Concurrent Packages/Related and Severable Documents
a) Concurrent Packages
Government Agencies must identify all packages that are to record concurrently with
another package by checking the appropriate box in SECURE, identifying the recording
specifics in the notes field and within the package order number (i.e. CoR- 123456- 1 of
3). It is the responsibility of the Government Agency to submit the packages in the
proper recording order.
Revised 4/08/2020
b) Related and Severable Documents
Riverside County will reject an entire package if any document in the package requires
further attention.
B.4 Correction Handling
Government Agencies will have the opportunity to correct only those documents that
have been marked as “Correction”. When a package is received in SECURE with a
status of “Correction Uploaded by County”, the Government Agency will have 30
minutes to complete the necessary corrections and resubmit the package for recording.
The 30-minute timeframe includes packages that are returned for correction after the
4:00p.m. queue closure. Packages returned for correction after 4pm will have one
opportunity to be corrected before they are expired for the day.
Upon the return of the corrected package, it will be processed “in priority” using the
original submission date and time.
Packages that are not resubmitted within the 30-minute timeframe will have expired and
will then receive an updated status in SECURE of “Completed Uploaded by County”. If
customers choose to resubmit a package that has previously expired, they can do so by
creating a new package.
B.5 Package Submittals
Government Agencies are required to request a unique “Account Code” from the
County of Riverside Assessor-County Clerk-Recorder for financial billing purposes.

followed by the transaction order number: i.e. COR-125630.
The Government Agency shall limit the size of each package to a maximum of 25
documents.
B.6 Recording Fees
All fees shall be paid in accordance with Riverside County’s approved process as
described in B.13 and may be amended from time to time by the County.

Transfer Tax Paid (if applicable), and Number of Pages.
Revised 4/08/2020
The County of Riverside reserves the right to make changes to the indexing and/or
Documentary Transfer Tax information, as well as any fee adjustments as necessary.

please call SECURE at (714) 478-9891, Monday through Friday between the hours of
7:00a.m. and 5:00p.m.
B.13 Payment Options
The Government Agency is responsible for the payment of all recording fees. The
Government Agency agrees to provide the County of Riverside with an authorization to
originate Automated Clearing House (ACH) debits against its bank account in payment
of said fees. If any ACH debit is returned unpaid, the County of Riverside may
immediately stop the submission and recording of electronic documents from the
Revised 4/08/2020
Government Agency. The Government Agency must pay all outstanding balances and
returned item fees and may be required to post a security deposit as condition to
resume the submission and recording of electronic documents.
B.14 Account Setup Procedures
The Government Agency is required to complete the applicable Memorandum of
Understanding, the Application for Charge Account and the ACH Debit Authorization
forms. Once the account request is approved, a Customer Code will be created and
activated for use.
B.15 Reporting and Reconciliation
The County of Riverside will e-mail a detail report to each Government Agency, showing
the breakdown of the fees due to be debited via ACH. The Government Agency is
responsible for reconciling the detail report and notifying the County Recorder’s
Accounting department of any discrepancy.
