Birth Certificate — order a copy (any state)
A birth certificate is separate to birth registration — registration is the legal record, the certificate is the printed/digital copy you order. You order it from the BDM in the state or territory where the birth was registered. Fees range $40-$74 for Standard certificates in 2026.
