INSTRUCTIONS FOR OBTAINING
A COPY OF NON-GENEALOGICAL VITAL RECORDS
•
Non-Genealogical Records are births occurring within the last 80 years or if the individual is still living, marriages occurring
within the last 50 years, deaths occurring within the last 40 years and all civil union and domestic partnership records.
•
Certified Copies have the raised seal of the office issuing the record and are always issued on State of New Jersey safety
paper. Certified copies may be used to establish identity and are legal documents.
•
Certifications are issued on plain paper with no seal and clearly indicate they are not valid for establishing identity or for legal
purposes. Certifications are generally useful for genealogy. Certifications of death records do not contain the Social Security
Number or the Cause of Death medical terminology.
•
Apostille Seal – An Apostille Seal is an additional seal required for certain certified records that will be presented to a foreign
government that is a member of the Hague Treaty. The seal is often required on documents for international adoptions or
establishing dual citizenship. Contact the consulate of the country involved to determine if you need an Apostille Seal.
An Apostille Seal can only be obtained by first requesting certified copy of the vital record from the State Office of Vital
Statistics and Registry. You would then forward this document to the New Jersey Department of Treasury, which issues the
Apostille Seal. Additional information is available at: http://www.state.nj.us/treasury/revenue/ apostilles.shtml.
Applications for a certification or certified copy of a Non-Genealogical record require the applicant to provide a completed
application, valid proof of identity1, payment of the fee and, if requesting a certified copy, proof that establishes you are:
o
the subject of the record;
o
the subject’s parent, legal guardian or legal representative;
o
the subject’s spouse/civil union partner, domestic partner, child, grandchild or sibling, if of legal age;
o
a state or federal agency for official purposes; or
o
requesting pursuant to a court order.
To request a certified copy of a Certificate of Birth Resulting in Stillbirth, use form REG-68, which is available on the New Jersey
Department of Health website at: http://nj.gov/health/vital/registration-vital/stillbirth/.
