How To Get A Replacement Birth Certificate

A replacement birth certificate is needed when your original birth certificate has been lost, stolen, or damaged. The process is similar to obtaining a new copy.

1. Locate the vital records office in the state of your birth.
2. Fill out the replacement birth certificate request form.
3. Provide valid government-issued photo identification.
4. Pay the replacement fee (varies by state).
5. Submit your request in person, by mail, or online depending on your state.

Most states allow you to request a replacement birth certificate online for convenience.
