Harrison County has a wonderfully rich history in the emergence of Indiana as our 19th state and the establishment of Corydon as Indiana's first state capital. Just as the early representatives met under the Constitution Elm in Corydon to draft Indiana's first Constitution, the current members of Harrison County government are working hard to represent the needs and will of the people of Harrison County Indiana. Harrison County provides residents with a progressive business community, active social, civic and religious organizations and a friendly small town feel.

Harrison County's rural location is just 25 minutes from the city center of Louisville, Kentucky, the nation's 16th largest city. The outstanding location and growing economy has made Harrison County one of the Indiana's fastest growing counties in recent years. For business or for pleasure we invite you to explore Harrison County Indiana and see for yourself why our community is an ideal place to live, work and play.

The Clerk's Office has been made aware of another online Passport scam. This one claims to, for a fee, assist the applicant in completing the application. In the process applicants are giving the scammers their name, address, date of birth and social security numbers! That is all that the scammer needs to steal the applicant’s identity.

Please only visit the U.S. Dept. of State's Passport website at www.travel.state.gov There is NO FEE for an application or way to submit your application online. If applying for a passport for the 1st time you must visit an acceptance agent facility like the Harrison County Clerk's office to submit your completed application. If you are on a website that requires a fee for a Passport application it is a scam.

If you are eligible to renew your Passport you may MAIL your application, form DS-82, without the assistance of an acceptance agent.

Please call the Clerk's office at 812-738-4289 if you have questions, concerns or want to schedule an appointment to have your application processed. We are experiencing a high quantity of applications so it is to your benefit to schedule an appointment so you do not experience a lengthy wait.

The U. S. Department of State has notified all Passport Acceptance facilities, including the Harrison County Clerk’s office, of a false social media claim.  The Clerk’s office would like to make Harrison County residents aware of the following:  A social media video advising customers on how to obtain a free passport is misinformation.  The fee waiver Form I-912 that is referenced in the video is for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services purposes, not for Passport Services.  This is not a Department of State form and is not honored by them.  For information on the select group eligible for a no-fee passport please visit www.travel.state.gov/sia  Feel free to contact the Clerk’s office at 812-738-4289 with any passport questions.
