Vital records: the version the state will accept
A vital record is rejected more often for being the wrong copy than for any other reason. This is what Oregon needs.

| Marriage certificate | Certified copy from the state or the county | Oregon Vital Records, or the county that recorded the marriage |
| Death certificate | Certified copy signed by the State Registrar | Oregon Vital Records, Portland |

Frequently asked questions
Where can I get an apostille in Gresham?
Pac Signing Notary serves Gresham by mobile notary: we come to you, collect the documents and file them. Oregon apostilles are issued by the Secretary of State in Salem, not in Gresham.
Can I apostille a photocopy of my birth certificate?
No. Oregon only apostilles a certified copy signed by the State Registrar, or a certified copy from the county showing the official’s name and signature.
Where do I order a certified Oregon birth certificate?
From Oregon Vital Records at 800 NE Oregon St, Suite 205, Portland, by mail, online or in person.
Do I need a new copy if mine is old?
It depends on the destination country. Some only accept a certified copy issued within the last few months, so check with the office requesting it before you order.
How do I prove I am single for a marriage abroad?
Oregon Vital Records issues a no-marriage verification letter, which can be apostilled. Some countries accept a notarized single status affidavit instead.
How much does it cost?
The apostille is $195 for the first Oregon document and $20 for each additional one. A mobile notary visit is $70.
