McKinney: which U.S. office issues your birth and marriage certificates
For a child born in McKinney, the original birth certificate the mission asks for comes from the Texas Department of State Health Services, through Texas.gov or by mail (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The Texas page lists what a copy costs, and the requirement is on the mission’s birth notice page.
For a marriage in Collin County, the county of McKinney, the CDC’s directory for Texas sends requests to the Collin County Clerk (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records); the mission asks for the certificate with an apostille.
For a birth, marriage or court document issued in Texas, the apostille comes from the Texas Secretary of State (HCCH list), not from the consulate.
