Which Israeli consulate serves Fairfield
Two offices divide California, and their own words are quoted on the California page.
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 Fairfield is in district 8, so this page sends it to San Francisco. That is our reading, not a published rule.
On the road it is 47 miles from Fairfield to the office, about 1 h 2 min in good conditions, or 38 miles as the crow flies.
San Francisco keeps the same clock as Fairfield, so its office hours need no conversion.

Birth and marriage records for people in Fairfield
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 Fairfield, 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.
For a marriage in Solano County, the county of Fairfield, the CDC’s directory for California sends requests to the Solano County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage) (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records); the mission asks for the certificate with an apostille.
The California Secretary of State is the authority that puts the apostille on a document from California (HCCH list), before it is used in Israel.
