RICHMOND, Va. (AP) _ More than 100,000 Virginia birth certificates have been purchased at the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles since the option became available one year ago. All 75 DMV customer service centers and five mobile DMV offices now provide Virginia birth certificates. The process for obtaining a birth certificate at DMV is the same as doing so directly through the Division of Vital Records. Customers complete an application, submit the required documentation, and pay a fee to the agency. The fee for a birth certificate at DMV is $14. The partnership will expand this summer when the DMV will begin offering Virginia death, marriage, and divorce records. All original records will continue to be stored securely by the Division of Vital Records.
