How do I obtain a birth certificate?

Trillium Health Centre’s Health Records department does not issue birth certificates. To obtain a birth certificate, contact The Office of the Registrar General at 1-800-461-2156.

After you give birth, the hospital or midwife will give you a form called a Statement of Live Birth. This is your child’s permanent identity record and is needed to apply for a birth certificate from The Office of the Registrar General. (Ministry of Health Long Term Care website)
