Birth Certificates

A copy of your birth certificate is on file in the Town Clerk's office of the town in which you were born, and in the town in which your mother lived at the time of your birth. A certified copy of a full size birth certificate is $10.00 each ($5.00 for wallet size).

Birth certificates are confidential in Connecticut and are available only to the individual or his or her spouse, parent, child, or grandparent. In order to obtain a copy of a birth certificate, you must give your name at birth, date of birth, photocopy of your driver's license or photo I.D., and your mother's maiden name.

You may request a birth certificate either by mail or in person. The Town Clerk's office is located in Room 313, and office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM, (860) 561-7430.
