U.S. birth and marriage papers from Amarillo for an Israeli mission
The birth certificate that the notice of a child born in Amarillo asks for, in the original, is issued by the Texas Department of State Health Services, through Texas.gov or by mail (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The Texas page gives its fee, and the mission’s page lists the document (the mission’s birth notice page).
Amarillo spreads over Potter and Randall counties, so the marriage office depends on the county: in Potter County, the CDC’s directory for Texas points to the Potter County Clerk (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). The mission wants the certificate with an apostille.
A public document from Texas goes to Israel with an apostille from the Texas Secretary of State (HCCH list); Israel and the U.S. are both parties to the Hague Convention, which Israel joined in 1978.
