Apostille Seal on Birth Certificate
« on: Sunday 16 March 14 19:53 GMT (UK) »
Hello. I'm trying to find out something for a friend of mine who is due to get married next May here in Ireland. He was born in England, and needs his birth cert. Apparently, he's said that its about £40 to get a birth cert with this seal on it. What I'm wondering is can you order the £9.25 cert from GRO with the Apostille seal on it?

Cheers,
Annie

A birth certificate is not proof of identity, so I think the direct answer to your question is no.

Does this link help?
