Birth Certificate Registration Form

[Narkis Eatman]

Thebirth registration team is responsible for registering live births filed by hospitals, midwives, or other individuals who deliver in Utah. A date of registration is assigned for each live birth certificate and any supporting documentation that is needed to register the birth certificate such as a paternity declaration. The registration team registers both current birth events and events that are older than one calendar year and have not yet been registered with the Office of Vital Records and Statistics (OVRS).

All live births filed with the Office of Vital Records and Statistic (OVRS) for individuals one calendar year or older shall be filed as delayed. Please contact the birth registration team at [email protected] or call 801-538-6105 to obtain further information on how to file a delayed certificate of live birth.

Even if you have never obtained a certified copy of your birth certificate, or know that you do not have a birth certificate on file, you will need to start the process by completing an application for a certificate of live birth. Order a Birth Certificate online or print a paper application. If applying by paper application follow instructions provided on the application, and along with picture ID and the required fee, mail the form into OVRS. OVRS will contact the applicant for further information and steps to be taken if a delayed birth certificate needs to be filed.

Utah law allows for the registration of early-term stillbirth deliveries for pregnancies between 16 - 19 weeks gestation as calculated from date of last normal menses period to the date of delivery.
