Pennsylvania has developed an online database system to manage its criminal records. This system is called by many as the Pennsylvania Access to Criminal History. Access to this database is open to the public thus allowing them to also request for a copy of a Pennsylvania arrest records.

The criminal reports of Pennsylvania which also includes the arrest records are stored and managed by the Pennsylvania Access to Criminal History. All of the request for any criminal record can be done with the use of the system. With this, the search is a lot more convenient and hassle free for both the government staff and the one who filed the request.

Originally, in getting an arrest record, one has to go to the correct branch of the government to be able to do so. If not, further delay may be experienced. This method of retrieval can take a while. It can take one day to file the retrieval and another 14 days to wait for to results of the search. This long wait time can be avoided when the search is made through the Pennsylvania Access to Criminal History system.

As the name of the document suggest, one will find details about the arrest. Information as to where and when the arrest happened is carefully documented on the file. The document would not be considered legal and valid without the complete name of the person who is involved with the incident. Details such as the individual's birth place and birth date as well as the residence address are also included in the file. One will know the offense and the crimes that the individual has committed that lead him to the arrest. The names of the witnesses and the prosecutor who took the case are not available on a public file. This was done to protect them from any harm or threat.

Requesting for a copy of an arrest record in the state of Pennsylvania is for only $10. The Pennsylvania Access to Criminal History allows even guests of the site to use it. However, not all of the files are available for public access. One is only allowed to obtain a copy of their personal files. Those who need to access the records of other people would have to present an authorization letter to proceed. Employers, agencies, organizations as well as authorized individuals need not present any authorization letter to proceed.

Most websites now have linked and connected their server to the state's online database. This allows a broad and thorough search in order to provide the best possible result to the users. One can choose to pay for the search or get the arrest records free. Doing a free search is made possible by using the website's trial offerings; however, the search conducted is not as thorough compared to the id search. This is the reason why residents of Pennsylvania still prefer the paid option.
