Report to Sheriff

Welcome to the King County Sheriff's Office Online Reporting System. You will be able to report your incident without waiting and be able to print a copy of the approved report.

To use this online reporting system, each of the following statements must be true:

• This is not an emergency (If it is, call 9-1-1 immediately).

• This is not an in-progress crime.

• This incident occurred within unincorporated King County or within one of our contract cities listed at the bottom of this page.

• This did not occur on Sound Transit or Metro bus or at a Park & Ride.

• This did not occur on a state freeway.

• You are ​not​ reporting a lost or stolen ​firearm.

• You are the victim of the crime.
  

• There are no known suspects.

• There was no evidence left behind.

• You have a valid e-mail address.

If you answered no to any of the above, look at our Frequently Asked Questions section or dial our non-emergency line at (206) 296-3311 so we can help you with your report.

If all the above are true, you are ready to file your report online. Turn off your pop-up blocking software before filing your report.

When filling out an online report, fields with a red asterisk * are mandatory.

Replies and report copies will be sent to the e-mail address that you provide. 

Upon completion of the process you will:

• See the words: "Your online police report has been submitted."

• Be given a temporary report number (this is not your permanent case number).

• Receive an e-mail within five days after your report is approved providing you with a permanent case number. A copy of your report will be attached to the e-mail.

Please note:

• All online reports will be reviewed before they are approved.

• You will be notified by email if your report does not meet the online reporting criteria.

• You may be contacted if further investigation of your case is needed.

Our incident types for online reporting are listed below. Tips and examples of types of reports to file are here.

If you are adding information to a burglary report you have already filed with an officer, select "Burglary Follow-Up."
