Certified birth certificates — Gregory County Register of Deeds

The register of deeds is the local registrar of vital records (SDCL 34-25-4.1)

$15.00per certified copy · the same at every register of deeds and at the state office

“The register of deeds shall be the local registrar of vital records for each registration district in this state” (SDCL 34-25-4.1), and the Department of Health says to order “in person at the State Office, 221 West Capitol Avenue, Pierre, SD 57501, or any South Dakota Register of Deeds”. A certified birth copy is $15.00: $13 under the Department's rule (ARSD 44:09:06:02(1)) and $2 more by statute for the children's trust fund (SDCL 34-25-52.2). The Department of Health's published $15.00 already includes that $2.

Free for service members and veterans — certified birth copies

South Dakota law says no charge may be madefor a certified copy of a birth, death or marriage record “to a serviceman in or a veteran of any war or conflict”, or to a member of their family, when it is needed for a claim (SDCL 34-25-54). It is not discretionary, and it binds the register of deeds as local registrar. Tell the office when you ask that you are asking under SDCL 34-25-54. SDCL 34-25-54 ↗
