Certified Birth Certificate Replacement

Start Your Application


​Most people understand that their birth certificate is an important document—but it’s also true that many of us don’t own one. Why is this? In a lot of cases, birth certificates get lost or damaged in the aftermath of relocations, spring cleaning, or just plain old negligence.
​
When that happens, it may seem that getting a birth certificate replacement is an unnecessary bother, especially if there doesn’t seem to be any compelling need to have that document in your possession. That is a misconception, however. It’s really a simple matter to obtain a birth certificate. FastBirthCertificates.com is here to help you obtain a copy of a birth certificate—quickly and affordably.

Why You Need a Birth Certificate Replacement


​Birth certificates have a wider range of uses than you might realize. These documents include a variety of personal data, such as your date of birth, your parents' names, and additional information, that can help you prove your identity and/or your eligibility for certain services. Here’s a partial list of the ways you can put your birth certificate to good use:
  • Applying for insurance or government benefits
  • Obtaining a driver’s license
  • Enlisting in the military
  • Requesting a passport
Please note that a certified copy of a birth certificate has the same legal standing as the original version. A birth certificate replacement is in no way inferior to the document it is replacing. ​

How to Obtain a Copy of a Birth Certificate


​The process of ordering copies of birth certificates depends on your birthplace.
​

Persons Born in the United States

You must obtain your birth certificate from the state of your birthplace. Each state maintains a vital records office that is responsible for issuing birth certificates, and each office has its own procedure for handling these requests.

​If that sounds potentially confusing, don’t worry—you can order a birth certificate replacement online right here at FastBirthCertificates.com. We’ll do all the work for you. It’s easy to apply for your birth certificate with our online form. You can begin by selecting your state of birth from the menu provided above.
​

Persons Born in a Foreign Country

If you were born overseas, the application procedure is different. Those who were born to American citizens residing in another country can obtain a Consular Report of Birth Abroad from the U.S. Department of State. This is possible only if the birth was registered with the U.S. embassy or consulate associated with that country. Otherwise, you may have to contact the hospital where the birth took place or the vital records office of the country in question.

​Persons who were born abroad and later adopted by an American citizen can obtain a copy of their birth certificate from the country of their birth. These can usually be requested from a foreign embassy or consulate associated with that country.
