Marquette: which U.S. office issues your birth and marriage certificates
A child born in Marquette is registered with Israel on the strength of an original birth certificate (the mission’s birth notice page). In Michigan that certificate comes from the state’s Vital Records office, in Lansing (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records); the fee is on the Michigan page.
For a marriage license issued in Marquette County, the county that includes Marquette, the CDC’s directory for Michigan sends you to the Marquette County Clerk (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). The mission wants that certificate in the original, with an apostille.
The Michigan Secretary of State is the authority that puts the apostille on a document from Michigan (HCCH list), before it is used in Israel.
