Birth and marriage records for people in Midland
A child born in Midland is registered with Israel on the strength of an original birth certificate (the mission’s birth notice page).
In Texas that certificate comes from the Texas Department of State Health Services, through Texas.gov or by mail (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records); the fee is on the Texas page.
Midland spreads over Martin and Midland counties, so the marriage office depends on the county: in Midland County, the CDC’s directory for Texas points to the Midland County Clerk (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). The mission wants the certificate with an apostille.
The Texas Secretary of State is the authority that puts the apostille on a document from Texas (HCCH list), before it is used in Israel.
