Get a Birth Certificate in Madison County, NY
This service isn't handled by the County Clerk. Here's where to go instead.
Birth certificates come from the local registrar where the birth occurred, or NYS DOH Vital Records — not the County Clerk. For events in New York City, use the NYC Health Department instead: https://www.nyc.gov/site/doh/services/birth-certificates.page
🌐 Go to the official portalhealth.ny.gov ↗Posting this to the state costs $30.00 a copy. Before you do: New York births are also filed with the clerk of the city, town or village where they happened, and that local registrar issues certified copies for roughly half — Albany's charges $15.00. Births in the five boroughs are separate again and go to the NYC Health Department at $15.00.
⚠️ This office does not process birth certificates. Use the agency linked above. The office below is your county's County Clerk — useful for other services.
