Copy birth certificates we supply are fully certified copies which are
suitable for all official purposes. Some reasons for obtaining a certificate
include an application for marriage, applying for an academic course, applying
for a passport or a driver's licence. One of the most common reasons is that the
original certificate was lost or mislaid.
Copy birth certificates do not require a signed release or similar for
the order to be processed. Nor does further documentation (e.g. driver's licence
or passport) have to produced Generally, there will be no special needs for the
order to be completed, beyond the initial supplying of information and
payment.
There is no choice between non certified and certified - all certificates
issued are certified. All certificates issued are issued with an official seal,
some certificates have a raised seal or a stamped seal.
We can supply birth certificates from the United Kingdom (UK) of Great
Britain (GB) England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales, and many overseas
births where the location was once a British territory, or if the event was
registered with a British consulate.
We cannot obtain certificates from the Republic of Ireland (Eire), nor the
Isle of Man, or the Channel Islands (Guernsey, Jersey, Sark).
We assume that the information supplied is accurate, and so cannot bear
responsibility for any issues developing from any information which is
inaccurately supplied. However, we will endeavour to locate and order the
correct certificate, and so if the information supplied does not match the
records we locate, we will contact you to resolve this.
Require an Apostille (Legalised) UK Certificate? An Apostille is a certificate confirming that a signature or a seal on a certificate is genuine. The process of obtaining an Apostille is called Legalisation.
Legalisation is usually required by foreign authorities before they will allow a UK document to be used for official purposes in their country. Apostille Certificates issued in the UK will be accepted in the following countries without further legalisation - Apostille Countries.
