Needed information to request a certified copy of a birth certificate:
- Name on the birth record
- Date and place (city/town) of birth
- The names of the parents, including the mother’s maiden name
- Your relationship to the person
- A daytime telephone number
You should mail your request including the above information, required fee ($60 per certified copy) and a self-addressed stamped envelope to the office with the address below:
11 State House Station
244 Water Street
Augusta, ME 04333-0011
Please note that the payment is non-refundable, meaning that even if the record is not found your fee will be retained. So when ordering a certificate you should include as much information as possible. For example, it is really helpful to provide the father’s name.
