Key facts

  • New Hampshire's vital records office issues certificates only for events (births, deaths, marriages) registered in New Hampshire — apply to the state where the event happened, not the state you live in now.
  • $15 for the first copy of a birth, death, or marriage certificate, $10 for each additional copy ordered at the same time.
  • Check or money order payable to the "Treasurer, State of New Hampshire."
  • Include a signed written request, a photo ID with signature, and a self-addressed stamped envelope.
  • Mailed applications take longer than online orders because processing only starts once the envelope arrives — allow extra time if you need the certificate for a passport, estate, or other deadline.
  • PostPal prints your completed application and mails it to Division of Vital Records Administration the next business day — no printer, envelope, or trip to the post office.
