Once you find the document you need, you can download it in a variety of formats: PDF, Text document, MODS, PREMIS, or ZIP file. Please note that the PDF has an authentication mark on the upper left corner. This evidence of document integrity (no unauthorized changes) and authenticity (verification of a digital publication's identity, source, and ownership) is why we say the information you find on the Govinfo.gov website is safe, secure, and can be trusted.
Please note: The Presidential Executive Orders can be difficult to locate because they weren't originally numbered prior to 1907, and they weren't required to be cataloged and published in a series until 1936. If you are looking for an older Presidential Executive Order, please contact us using our online reference service form Ask a Question. We have an extensive collection of historic Executive Orders on microfiche and may have what you need.
