CERTIFIED BIRTH CERTIFICATE
The
Official Travel Documents website was formed to help US
citizens obtain information on getting a certified birth certificate quickly and easily.
Certified birth certificates are fast becoming the most important document to prove
identity, age and credentialing verification. They are a
required piece of documentation for activities ranging from school
registration, driver's license applications, and passports.
It is
necessary to obtain a certified birth certificate if you or your
family members have lost their original copy. This process
of obtaining a new birth certificate is seamless with the Official
Travel Documents resources, including direct links to
VitalChek.com, America's leading
source for expedited vital records services. Since each state has different requirements
and different levels of service, it is beneficial to use these services to
help guide you through the process.
Some states will issue an uncertified copy as well
as a certified birth certificate. VitalChek will make sure to submit your request correctly to
ensure that you receive exactly what you need for your official records.
An example of an uncertified copy of a birth certificate will be a
photocopy on plain, white paper of the original document that is filed
in the states official document’s office. Most states issue two formats
of the certified copy of birth certificate, a computer-printed extract
or a photocopy of the original record. Either format will be acceptable
for legal purposes such as obtaining a driver’s license or a passport,
or for foreign travel. The certified photocopy will be a copy on
security paper of the original certificate. Unless you specify
otherwise, most states will process and send you a computer-printed
extract.
Obtaining a certified copy of birth certificate can be quickly and easily
accomplished using the Official Travel Documents resources below.
