U.S. birth and marriage papers from Chico for an Israeli mission

The mission’s notice of a child born abroad asks for the original birth certificate (the mission’s birth notice page).

For a birth in Chico, it comes from the California Department of Public Health’s Vital Records office, in Sacramento (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records), and the California page has the fee.

In Butte County, where Chico is, certified copies of a marriage record come from the Butte County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage), according to the CDC’s directory for California (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). For the mission, the copy needs an apostille.

Papers from California for use in Israel need the apostille of the California Secretary of State (HCCH list).
