Access to the complete record is restricted to the people named on the divorce record, as well as their adult children (if any), and their present or previous spouse. A lawyer acting on behalf of one of the people named on the divorce record may also have access to the document. Members of the public will only receive confirmation that the divorce took place in South Carolina, and the date and county where it was granted.

To place an order for a South Carolina divorce record, a requestor will need to provide the complete names of each spouse, the date of the divorce, the county where the divorce was granted, and his or her relationship to the divorced couple. The person placing the order will also need to explain why the record is being requested.

Ordering South Carolina divorce records in person or by mail are not the most efficient ways to access this information. Going to the Vital Records Office or the County Clerk's Office to request a copy of the record can be time-consuming and inconvenient. Mail orders will take several weeks to process, depending on the number of orders the office has ahead of the requestor's to look after. Then the person who wants the divorce record will have to wait to have the information mailed to his or her home or office. Online orders can be processed immediately upon receipt and the results are forwarded to the requestor's e-mail account. It's the quickest and most efficient way to access this important type of vital record.

Anyone who has been divorced in South Carolina should make a point of ordering a copy of his or her own divorce record to ensure that it is complete and error free.
