Do you need to apostille your Birth Certificate?

An apostilled birth certificate is a standard requirement if you are getting married in a foreign country, applying for dual citizenship, or need to settle property or other types of inheritance abroad. 

In the US, birth certificates are issued by the State Registrar and bear the name of the current State Registrar. So, if you live in California, for instance, all California-issued vital records (including birth, death, and marriage certificate) will bear the name and title of California current State Registrar.

A US-issued birth certificate will become legally acceptable in a different country only after it receives an Apostille from the issuing State Office. An apostille is needed to certify the signature of the official who signed your birth certificate. If, for example, your birth certificate was issued in Texas, the Texas Department of State will certify the signature of the current state Registrar and attach a Texas apostille. When you request an original birth certificate always check it for the title and signature of the State Registrar – that’s what makes your birth certificate official.
