Welcome to the Florida Bureau of Vital Statistics

Welcome to the official government website for the Florida Bureau of Vital Statistics. If a website relating to vital record certificates does not contain .gov it is NOT an official government website. Many companies not affiliated with the Florida Bureau of Vital Statistics have official looking websites and offer their services to order vital record certificates. VitalChek.com is the ONLY contracted vendor with the State of Florida authorized to provide these services. Please be careful sharing your personal information with any other company.

The Bureau of Vital Statistics is trying to improve!
