Question 1

Do New Jersey agencies accept faxed documents?

Accepted Answer

Many do, and some require fax for permit applications, OPRA requests, and regulatory filings. State offices, including those tied to the NJ Department of State, commonly publish fax numbers for intake. Send FAX Mail provides the confirmation page these submissions usually call for.

Question 2

How does fax fit New Jersey's OPRA obligations?

Accepted Answer

A fax an agency sends or receives may be a public record under OPRA and has to be retained on the applicable schedule. Send FAX Mail keeps a full log of every transmission, so staff can find a specific document when a request arrives. That beats searching through paper files.

Question 3

Can counties and municipalities use this with state offices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The service works the same for a municipal clerk, a county department, or a state agency, and each office can hold its own number under a shared account. Activity stays searchable in one place.

Question 4

What does it cost a New Jersey government office?

Accepted Answer

Plans start at $12.99 per month, with larger plans for higher-volume agencies. Each plan includes a monthly page allowance, and an NJ office handling heavier OPRA and filing traffic steps up to a larger tier rather than paying anything per page. Choosing your number is free, and the arrangement generally costs far less than maintaining fax machines and dedicated lines across multiple offices.
