This Is Not a Government Office or Records Custodian. Virginia Beach Residents Directory is a private reference. It cannot retrieve a record, issue a certified copy, confirm a person’s current address, or amend a government list. Direct those requests to the agency that keeps the record. For emergencies, call 911. If someone is stalking or harassing you, contact local police.
Finding the Right Custodian
These Virginia Beach routes fit the most common record questions:
- A street or parcel: use the Streets directory and begin with the property card.
- An older directory entry: use the City Directory collections and library routes.
- A careful one-person check: use the Resident Lookup workflow.
- The offices behind each record: see Virginia Beach resident custodians.
- A city record not online: use the Virginia Freedom of Information Act route with the custodian named for that record type.
