Fairfax City White Pages Overview
Fairfax City White Pages Court Search
The City of Fairfax is one of 38 independent cities in Virginia. It is not part of Fairfax County for government work, but the two share a courthouse and a circuit court bench. The City of Fairfax Circuit Court Clerk keeps the case files, marriage licenses, wills, and probate records for the city. Land records for the City of Fairfax are recorded with the Fairfax County Circuit Court Land Records Division, which sits in the same building. That joint setup means a White Pages style lookup may cross the city and county lines for one search.
The Clerk's Office holds court records that go back to the 1961 charter. The office takes walk in record requests and accepts mailed requests with a check. Most case files are open to the public under Virginia Code § 17.1-208. That law says records held by clerks of courts of record are open to inspection, with a few narrow carve outs for sealed cases.
For a name search across active criminal and civil cases, the city uses the state CJISWeb tool. The Fairfax City circuit court is part of the 19th Judicial Circuit. Pick the city court from the dropdown, type a name, and run the search. The case page shows hearings, parties, and any disposition.
The Fairfax City White Pages court system uses the same statewide search portal that serves most of the state, and the screenshot below shows the search interface.

Fairfax City Property and Land Records
The City of Fairfax Real Estate Assessments office is the place to start for any property White Pages search. The office sits in the Finance Department. Staff value all real property in the city at 100% of fair market value each year. That work is required by Virginia Code § 58.1-3201. The free public search lets you look up a parcel by address, owner name, or map and parcel number.
Each property card shows the owner of record, the mailing address, the tax map number, the lot size, and the most recent sale price. The records are open under Virginia Code § 58.1-3122.2, which lets local offices put assessment data on the web. Deed images sit with the Fairfax County Land Records Division, which records all instruments for the City of Fairfax under a long standing inter office deal.
Recorded deeds in Fairfax City must show the parcel ID on the first page under Virginia Code § 17.1-252. A Land Records Cover Sheet must come with the deed under Virginia Code § 17.1-227.1. The clerk will not accept any paper that includes a social security number.
Note: A Fairfax City property search may pull data from both the city assessor and the Fairfax County Land Records Division depending on the kind of record you need.
Fairfax City Police Records
The City of Fairfax Police Department runs its own Records Division. The unit holds incident reports, accident reports, and arrest logs for events that took place inside the city limits. A White Pages style lookup of police records starts with a written request to the division.
To request a record, fill out the city FOIA form or send a written note with the case number, the date, the names of the parties, and the kind of report you need. The fee for a copy is set on a cost basis. The five day clock under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act applies. For active cases, the Police Department may withhold parts of the file under Virginia Code § 2.2-3706, which covers criminal investigative files.
The department also takes walk in requests at the police station on Old Lee Highway. Bring valid ID and the case number if you have one. Staff will pull the file from the records system, redact what the law says must be held back, and give you a copy or a denial in writing.
Fairfax City Vital Records Lookup
Vital records for births, deaths, marriages, and divorces in Fairfax City are kept by the Virginia Department of Health Office of Vital Records in Richmond. A copy of any vital record costs $12.

Birth records become open to the public 100 years after the date of the event. Death, marriage, and divorce records open to the public 25 years after the event. Before that point, the records go only to immediate family. That means a spouse, parent, child, brother, sister, or grandparent with valid ID. Aunts, uncles, and cousins cannot get a copy under state rules. The Fairfax City Circuit Court Clerk also issues marriage licenses for couples who plan to wed in the city.
The state Vital Records homepage groups its online ordering, walk in, and mail in options into one dashboard.
