How to Search Minnesota Wants & Warrants (Start Here)
Active warrants in Minnesota are maintained by law enforcement at state, county, and local levels. There is no single database of all warrants in Minnesota.
What this page covers: Minnesota state warrant databases, most-wanted lists, and county-level warrant search tools where available. What it does not cover: Federal warrants (those are handled by the U.S. Marshals and FBI).
Where to start: Check the state law enforcement agency first for statewide warrant searches. For county-level warrants, contact the county sheriff. Many county sheriffs post active warrant lists on their websites.
Common mistake: Most-wanted lists only show high-priority fugitives. If you need to check whether someone has any active warrant, a most-wanted list is not enough — contact the county sheriff or clerk of court directly.

Usually no. Warrants are issued by individual courts and tracked by the issuing agency. Some states compile partial statewide lists, but complete coverage requires checking each county.
How do I check if I have a warrant? ▼
Contact the county sheriff or clerk of court where you think the warrant may have been issued. Some county offices offer online warrant checks; others require a phone call.
Are federal warrants included? ▼
No. Federal warrants are handled by the U.S. Marshals Service and are not in state databases.
