A Personnel file is a computer file that contains information on a specific person. All Starfleet officers have a personnel file.
In the mirror universe, Jonathan Archer called up the personnel file of Hoshi Sato's prime universe counterpart. As a way of retribution, Sato then called up the personnel file on Archer's counterpart, from which they learned that the Archer from the prime universe was captain of the NX-01 Enterprise and would be instrumental in the formation of a United Federation of Planets. (ENT: "In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II")
Members of the Bajoran military also have personnel files. They contain a voiceprint, a retinal scan, a psychiatric profile and a holopicture. In 2371, Quark used a decryption protocol to gain access to Major Kira Nerys' personnel file so he could create a holosuite program featuring her likeness for Tiron. (DS9: "Meridian")
Jadzia Dax claimed that the her personnel file described her as "adorable" three times. (DS9: "Rejoined")
24th century personnel files contain the following information about a specific person:
- Photograph
- Species
- Name and Place of Birth
- Several Photographs
- Biometric Identification
- Latest Assignment
- Inputs from Commanding officers of assignments
- List of all Assignments along with the Stardate assigned (once stardates came into use).

Background
- In "Conundrum", we see the personnel files of the entire senior staff of the Enterprise-D, except for Worf, Geordi La Forge and William T. Riker.
- Hoshi Sato's and Jonathan Archer's peronnel files shown in "In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II", were not intended to be legible, and as such didn't go through the producers. They have been considered canon however, as they were seen on screen.
