Montana Quitclaim Deed

About the Mineral County Clerk & Recorder

Mineral County covers Superior, the county seat, and Alberton, strung along the Clark Fork River in a narrow, mountainous stretch of western Montana. With just over 5,000 residents in a fairly compact county, the office here is a manageable size — straightforward to work with, without the wait of a bigger city.

Cities and Communities Served

Recording jurisdiction runs countywide, not by city limits — if the property sits anywhere within Mineral County, this is the Clerk & Recorder’s office that will accept the deed. That includes:

Incorporated towns: Alberton and Superior (county seat).

Unincorporated communities: Haugan, Saltese, St. Regis, De Borgia, Henderson, Lozeau, and Tarkio.

How to File a Document

  1. Prepare Your Document: Make sure your deed meets Montana's formatting and content requirements before you file.
  2. Get It Notarized: Have the document signed in front of a Montana notary public or other authorized official. No notary nearby in Superior? Montana allows remote online notarization — you can notarize your Mineral County deed online instead.
  3. Complete a Realty Transfer Certificate: Montana law requires a completed Realty Transfer Certificate (Form RTC) to accompany every deed submitted for recording — even transfers that don't require disclosing the sale price still need the form filed.
  4. Record It: You can file in person at the Mineral County Clerk & Recorder's office; call the office to confirm whether mail-in filing is accepted.
  5. Pay the Recording Fee: A flat statewide rate for the first page, with a lower rate for each additional page.
  6. Keep Your Receipt: Your recorded document (or a certified copy) is your proof of filing.
