Recording fee: $9.00 first page + $2.00 each additional page (map filing fee); general document recording is a separate $14.00 first page + $3.00 each additional page source · verified 2026-07

Source: Riverside County Assessor-County Clerk-Recorder 'ACR 156' Fee Schedule (Rev. 01/2026), 'Filing Fees - First page, Each Map' / 'Each Additional Page' line items. A general web search independently returned the same $9/$2 map filing figures, but both traced back to this same official PDF, so this is effectively single-sourced to the county's own fee schedule.
