What can you tell me about background checks?

Criminal history background checks are available in person at the administration office of the Niceville Police Department Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m.  This background check will give only information pertaining to arrests made by the Niceville Police Department.


For a statewide criminal history, we suggest you go to Florida Department of Law Enforcement website and follow their links.  Be aware there is a charge for their service, however information will be provided to all arrests made in the State of Florida, not just the City of Niceville. For criminal history information in another state, we suggest you use an internet search engine of your choice and enter '(state) criminal history records'. For more information, contact us at 850-279-6436.
