Birth Records Colorado
 
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment - Vital Records Section maintains birth records for persons born in Colorado from 1910 to the present. Access to birth records is limited to the person named on the birth certificate, members of the person�s immediate family, legal representatives of the person or the immediate family, and others who can demonstrate a direct and tangible interest in obtaining the birth record.

  • Photo Driver�s License
  • U.S. Passport
  • Foreign Passport
  • Temporary Resident Card
  • Tribal ID Card
  • U.S. Military ID card
  • A complete list is available at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment�s website
