Record Retention Guidelines by State

It’s safe to say that everyone has at least one stack of documents they hold onto for safekeeping. From individuals to businesses, we’ve all got files and records that we save. But how long do we really need to keep them?

TL;DR: Most businesses retain tax records for 3–7 years, employee records for 4–7 years, HIPAA/medical files for at least 6 years, and keep formation documents permanently. Exact timelines vary by state and federal rules — see the table below or get free quotes from vetted records providers.

Documents Subject To Record Retention Laws

Both state and federal laws dictate the types of records that must be retained and how long they must be retained. Individuals, businesses, and federal, state, and local governments must retain specific records, ensuring they remain compliant. Federal, state, and local government records also may be available to the public per disclosure laws. Typically the following records are subject to federal and/or state records retention laws:

  • Corporate documents (like articles of incorporation for businesses)
  • Tax documents
  • Healthcare and insurance documents
  • Employment records (and salaries of public officials, including teachers)
  • Financial documents (like bank statements, investment account statements, etc.)
  • Legal documents

Record Retention Guidelines by State

Every state’s document retention guidelines are maintained by a State Archivist. Archivists have a strong working knowledge of records and work to maintain their state’s documents. They also help document their state’s record retention guidelines for both individuals and businesses.

Retention guidelines are a basic component of any records management process, so it’s key to know which apply to you. Document retention guidelines can vary greatly from state to state, so understanding your state’s specific guidelines are key to maintaining compliance. Read on to learn more and explore your state’s guidelines.

We’ve listed below each state, along with a link to their archivist’s website where document retention guidelines can be found. While we aim to update this resource regularly, guidelines can change at any time. It’s recommended that you also do your own research to confirm what’s required in your state. This is also why establishing a record retention policy is crucial to compliance.

Federal Guidelines For Record Retention

Federal guidelines for record retention may differ from state guidelines. Both laws must be followed to ensure compliance. While federal laws may be looser related to retention, states may impose stricter guidelines.

If businesses, state/local governments, or individuals run afoul of federal document retention laws, the risks and penalties of noncompliance can range from fines and lawsuits to the loss of government contracts or licenses. Learning about and following both state and federal record retention guidelines can help you avoid these pitfalls.

How Long Should Businesses Keep Records?

Businesses also must adhere to specific record retention guidelines and laws (both federal and state). For example, business records like articles of incorporation and contracts must be kept indefinitely. Some financial records, however, have a limit of how long they can be kept. 

Businesses also must retain tax documents, which should be kept for three years from the date you filed the return. With the variance between document types, make sure you review all of the different types you have to ensure compliance.

The Importance Of Creating A Record Retention Policy

Businesses are subject to both state and federal laws related to records retention. For this reason, it is crucial that all businesses create a detailed record retention policy, ensuring the business and its employees remain compliant. 

Businesses should work with their legal team to research and understand all document retention laws (both state and federal). Policies should outline specific retention processes, including where and how records will be retained. A retention policy should also clearly detail the timeline for document preservation. 

Compliance offers must ensure that multiple copies of documents are retained and create a strategic archival process that ensures proper HR, tax, legal, and other documents remain secure yet accessible.
