By road, New Orleans is 354 miles from the office, about 6 h 35 min at posted speed limits and without traffic; in a straight line, 322 miles.

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

The birth certificate that the notice of a child born in New Orleans asks for, in the original, is issued by the Center of Vital Records and Statistics, in New Orleans (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).

The Louisiana page gives its fee, and the mission’s page lists the document (the mission’s birth notice page).

New Orleans is in Orleans Parish. The Louisiana page quotes the CDC on which marriage records the parish keeps.

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