How do I register my protection order in Idaho?

To register your out-of-state protection order, bring a certified copy of the order to any Idaho court.1 You will also need to give the court an affidavit. This is a sworn statement saying that the order is currently in effect to the best of your knowledge.2 When you register the order, it will be entered into the Idaho enforcement telecommunications system.3  Registering your order in Idaho is free.4 To find courthouses in Idaho, go to our Idaho Courthouses page.

Note: An out-of-state order is also called a “foreign” order.
