Mobile: which U.S. office issues your birth and marriage certificates
In Alabama, registering a child born in Mobile with Israel’s Population Registry starts from an original birth certificate from the Alabama Center for Health Statistics, in Montgomery (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The fee is on the Alabama page, and the requirement on the mission’s birth notice page.
A public document from Alabama goes to Israel with an apostille from the Alabama Secretary of State (HCCH list); Israel and the U.S. are both parties to the Hague Convention, which Israel joined in 1978.
