Find someone's current address in Derry. Pay only when we do.
Trace Bureau is the tracing agent for Derry and the whole of County Londonderry, instructed online. We trace people who were last known in Derry or anywhere in County Londonderry, and people who have moved away from it. Derry has the north-west of Northern Ireland, which is exactly the kind of movement that leaves a trail across more than 150 sources, registers and records. A person cross-references that trail and you are charged only when we deliver a current address.
How tracing works for Derry instructions
The process is the same wherever the person is. What changes is the court you will be dealing with afterwards, and we write the report with that in mind.
You tell us who and why
Full legal name plus a date of birth or a previous address, often the last BT address you had. Then the reason: money owed, proceedings, a tenancy, an estate, a lost relative. We record the lawful basis.
We trace across the whole UK
People do not stay inside County Londonderry. Our sources are national, so a person who left Derry for the other end of the country is found the same way as one who moved two streets.
You get a report built for Londonderry County Court
For service or enforcement in Northern Ireland, the report gives the address, our confidence rating, the categories of record checked and the dates, so it stands up if it is questioned.
