Ordering Certificates

Florida certificates are issued through the Bureau of Vital Statistics at the Department of Health. Orders may be placed in person, by mail, or online through VitalChek.

Order Online Through VitalChek

As such, fees charged by VitalChek® may be different than fees charged when ordering directly through your local health department office.
