Vital Records

Not all county health departments handle vital records for their county in Georgia; however, four of the health departments in the South Health District do. Please see the list below for each county in the district and where you can request a copy of a birth or death certificate. If you have any questions, please contact your local health department.

County health departments that handle vital records, can now retrieve records for anyone in the State of Georgia.
