IDPAPA Novelty Iowa Birth Certificate

What Is a Birth Certificate?

A birth certificate is an officially issued document from a U.S. state or local government that records the foundational facts of a person's birth. It generally contains:

lFull legal name

lGender designation

lDate and location of birth

lNames and details of parent(s)

lHospital or birth facility information (if applicable)

As a core form of identification, it is often the first document establishing legal identity and is required across various stages of life—from school registration to legal procedures.
