Requirements and procedures for ordering a birth certificate in Vermont may vary depending on the birth year and the method of ordering. Here are some general guidelines:
Only the person named on the certificate, immediate family members, legal guardians or representatives, and authorized government officials can order a birth certificate.
Vermont offers online, mail, and in-person options for ordering a birth certificate.
You will need to provide the full name on the birth certificate, date and place of birth, parents' full names, and your relationship to the person named on the certificate.
You will need to provide a valid government-issued photo ID, such as a driver's license, state-issued ID card, or passport, when ordering a birth certificate.
The fee for a certified copy of a birth certificate in Vermont is $10. Additional fees may apply for rush processing or expedited shipping.
