North Carolina Vital Records is a unit of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. The unit is responsible for registering all births, deaths, fetal deaths, marriages and divorces that occur in North Carolina. Its registration process involves a statewide system of hospitals, funeral directors, registers of deeds, local health department staff and others who register vital events. Once vital events have been registered, North Carolina Vital Records preserves the individual vital records in a secure environment. When appropriate, its records are corrected, amended and even replaced. The unit also offers certified and uncertified copies when requested for legal actions, passports, law enforcement investigations, child support enforcement, health-related research and official identification. It charges standard fees authorized by law for services.
