Due to COVID19 restrictions, the Miami Dade Police Department does not allow an in-person request or a written mail request at this time. Instead of an in-person request or a request by mail, to obtain a copy of a Miami Dade Police Department report online, you must visit the police department’s Florida Crash Portal and obtain a copy of your official police report through their Records Division. For online searches on the Florida Crash Portal, you must fill out the public records request form and provide your email address and a copy of proper identification. You will be limited to ten reports per transaction. Once your request has been submitted to the South Miami Police Department’s online portal, you must wait at least four weeks for your crash record request to be processed. If you have any questions concerning the status of your official police report request, you can contact the Miami Dade Police Department Records Unit by phone at (305)-603-6477 Monday through Friday 8 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
