1250.20—What do I include in my FOIA request?

In your FOIA request, you must:
(a) Describe the records you wish to access in enough detail to allow NARA staff to find them. The more information you provide, the better possibility NARA has of finding the records you are seeking. Information that will help us find the records includes:
(1) The agencies, offices, or individuals involved; and
(2) The approximate date when the records were created.
(b) Include your name and full mailing address. If possible, please include a phone number or email address as well. This information will allow us to reach you faster if we have any questions about your request.
(c) Mark both your letter and envelope with the words “FOIA Request.”
