Can I file a Delayed Certificate of Birth at my local county health department?
In some cases, if a child is less than one year of age, you may contact the local county health department’s vital statistics office, in the county where the birth occurred, to file a belated birth record. The chief deputy registrar will assist you with the filing of the birth record. A Delayed Certificate of birth (for a child one year of age through adult) requires contacting the Bureau of Vital Statistics in Jacksonville, Florida. You must call the Delayed Unit at (904) 359-6900 ext 9003.
