Israeli consulate in Burbank: the office is in Los Angeles
The Israeli consulate that handles Burbank is outside the city. The Israeli Consulate General in Los Angeles is the office for Burbank: 20 miles by road, about 28 min.
Which Israeli consulate serves Burbank
California has two Israeli offices, and the California page quotes what each one’s page says about the split.
San Francisco’s page serves “Northern California (Districts 1-22)” (source). We read those as congressional districts on the 2023-2027 map: the center of Burbank is in district 30, outside that range, so this page sends it to Los Angeles. That is our reading, not a published rule.
A routing engine puts the drive at 20 miles and 28 min at legal speeds with no traffic; the straight-line distance is 13 miles.
Burbank and Los Angeles share a time zone: the office’s hours are your hours.

Birth and marriage records for people in Burbank
In California, registering a child born in Burbank with Israel’s Population Registry starts from an original birth certificate from the California Department of Public Health’s Vital Records office, in Sacramento (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The fee is on the California page, and the requirement on the mission’s birth notice page.
For a marriage license issued in Los Angeles County, the county that includes Burbank, the CDC’s directory for California sends you to the Los Angeles County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage) (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The mission wants that certificate in the original, with an apostille.
For a birth, marriage or court document issued in California, the apostille comes from the California Secretary of State (HCCH list), not from the consulate.
