Detroit Health Records Division Extends Office Hours Print E-mail
Tuesday, 02 September 2008

Metro Detroit Community NewsDetroit, MI - The Detroit Department of Health and Wellness Promotion (DHWP) Vital Records Division will extend its hours to accommodate parents and guardians needing birth records for school registration.  DHWP will also provide immunizations at several health centers.

The special hours for vital records are August 25 – 29 and September 2 - 5 from 8 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. and on Saturday, September 6 from 8 a.m. – 4 p.m.  Offices are closed on Labor Day.
   
The DHWP Vital Records office is located at 1151 Taylor (Herman Kiefer Health Complex). Birth records are available for persons born in the city of Detroit ONLY.   
   
Certified copies of birth records cost $17.  Additional copies (ordered at the same time) are $5.  Certified copies of birth records cost $5 for senior citizens ages 65 or older requesting their own birth records.
   
In Michigan, birth records are legal documents, and the only person entitled to a birth record is: 1) the individual named therein (18 years or older with proper identification); or 2) the parents named on the document or the legal guardian, who is required to show proof of guardianship.  Identification (e.g., valid driver's license, valid state I.D. or three alternate documents -- social security card, voter's registration card and a utility bill) must be shown.
   
For more information regarding birth or death records, call (313) 876-0417.
