The question seems to be confining the contact as person-to-person, and IN PERSON (i.e.: face-to-face). While researching this question I came upon many references to the tape recording of PHONE CALLS, but found the below cite in a labor law article published by a IA law firm specializing in Labor Law matters, dated "Summer 2009." Thus... I believe the information contained therein to probably be accurate. It read, "ln Iowa, only one party to the conversation needs to know and consent to the recording of the conversation."

Added: Please note that BOTH the below links confine their information to the tape recording of PHONEconversations and do not address the recording of face-to-face, inter-personal conversations.

Are you trying to ask if it is illegal to put an audio recording device in an automobile that does not belong to you and record conversations without the permission of all persons in that automobile, check the federal privacy act if you are in the USA. I suspect you are not in the USA by your lack of command of the English language.

Is it illegal to tape record someone without their knowledge in Ohio?

The answer provided specifically states exactly what you just repeated. Also the answer provided did not distinguish between personal or over the phone conversations because it was irrelevant to the answer as both apply equally.The bottom line and to avoid further confusing the person posing the question, anything that is recorded in Ohio is fine as long as you are part of the conversation or you have permission from at least one person who is involved in it.I also disagree in regards to "getting every persons permission first" if there are multiple States involved in the conversation. It is easier to ask what State a person is calling from then warning them about recording a conversation. The whole point of recording it to begin with is (I am assuming) to catch someone with their pants down breaking the law such as harassment or threats. I seriously doubt that you'll get someone to agree to having them be recorded while that is going on. Unless the State a person is in has an "All Party Consent" law, keep it to yourself.-------------------------The question does not state if the conversation is being recorded 'in person' or 'over- the-phone.' The following covers only 'over the phone' conversations: Ohio's wiretapping law is a "one-party consent" law. Ohio law makes it a crime to intercept or record any "wire, oral, or electronic communication" unless one party to the conversation consents. Ohio Rev. Code § 2933.52. Thus, if you are in Ohio, you may record a conversation or phone call if you are a party to the conversation or you get permission from one party to the conversation in advance.That said, if you intend to record conversations involving people located in more than one state, you should play it safe and get the consent of all parties.----------------------------There are 12 States in the U.S. That requires ALL parties involved in the conversation (All Party Consent) to be made aware that the conversation is being recorded. These States are:CaliforniaConnecticutDelawareFloridaIllinoisMarylandMassachusettsMichiganMontanaNew HampshirePennsylvaniaWashingtonThe following 38 States require that at least ONE person (One Party Consent) involved in the conversation has given permission for the conversation to be recorded including the person doing the recording:AlaskaArkansasColoradoDistrict of ColumbiaGeorgiaHawaiiIdahoIndianaIowaKansasKentuckyLouisianaMaineMinnesotaMississippiMissouriNebraskaNevadaNew JerseyNew MexicoNew YorkNorth CarolinaNorth DakotaOhioOklahomaOregonRhode IslandSouth CarolinaSouth DakotaTennesseeTexasUtahVermontVirginiaWest VirginiaWisconsinWyomingThis falls under the United States Code: Title 18.2511. As long as you actually take part in the conversation and are doing so in a State that allows "One Party Consent", it is quite legal to record the conversation without another party in the conversation giving permission or even being told that they are being recorded.Hope that fully answers your question..
