U.S. birth and marriage papers from Santa Barbara for a Bangladeshi office
The California Department of Public Health’s Vital Records office, in Sacramento issues the U.S. birth certificate that the NVR of a child born in Santa Barbara asks for, and the California page gives its fee (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records, Embassy NVR page).
If the marriage license was issued in Santa Barbara County, where Santa Barbara lies, the CDC’s directory for California points to the Santa Barbara County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage) for the certified copy (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
