Private reference, not a records office. Paramus Residents Directory cannot retrieve or certify a record, confirm a person at an address, or change an official list. Direct those requests to the custodian. For an emergency call 911. If someone is stalking or harassing you, contact local police.
Finding the Right Paramus Custodian
These routes narrow a request before it reaches the office that holds the record:
- Parcel and street evidence: use the Paramus street directory.
- Older phone books and historical household research: consult the Paramus Directory Book.
- One-person record verification: use the Paramus resident lookup.
- Record not online: make a focused written request under the New Jersey Open Public Records Act (OPRA), P.L. 2001, c.404, N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq., to the custodian.
Paramus Borough Clerk: Paramus Borough Hall, 1 West Jockish Square, Paramus, NJ 07652. Phone 201-265-2100 ext. 2200. Published hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Clerk Form Center provides the borough Government Records Request Form.
Bergen County Clerk Land Records: use the county’s public land-records search for recorded instruments, or contact the county clerk for older books and series-specific requests. For court matters, contact the appropriate clerk rather than asking for an informal name list.
