Pike County, Alabama – Birth Certificates and Death Records

If you need to get a new driver’s license or state-issued identification card, or one of a myriad of other types of documents requiring a high level of identification, then you are almost undoubtedly aware of the importance of having a copy of your birth certificate. Just about everyone has or will have a need to have a copy on hand, and because of this, it is extremely important to know how you can get a new copy of your birth certificate should you lose or misplace yours.

Because of the importance of this kind of document, it can be somewhat difficult to get a copy – but not because you will struggle to find out where these records are kept, or even because they are expensive to fetch. Rather, all vital records, of which birth records for Pike County are included, are maintained by the Alabama Department of Public Health.

Provided that a. you are willing to pay a fee of $15, and b. that you can demonstrate that you are the person spoken of on the birth record (or that you can demonstrate that you are directly related to them), then you can grab a new copy of their birth certificate at any time.

The same rules apply for records of death for Pike County, Alabama.
