If I could give a Zero Star Review
If I could give a Zero Star Review, I would! This was the worst experience I ever encountered with a vendor. I applied for a copy of my birth certificate in April 2025. Lo and behold, it’s October 2025 and it’s still being processed. It took two months to be processed in Miami and then sent to New York. I paid for processing along with a notary. After phone calls and emails, I finally did the right thing and dispute the charges.
Six months is way too long to wait on a copy of a birth certificate. It wouldn’t take that long coming from a foreign country! Think twice before you give this company your business.
UPDATE: As you can see the vendor replied to my review and instructed me to contact them with my order number. I did exactly that and received an email from the company. Instead of making things right, they chose a different path. They said since I dispute the charges after 5 1/2 months of waiting, they cancelled my order. I don’t believe they ever processed my order or contacted the NYC Bureau of Records for a status.
A reputable company would make things right and produce the final product.
No one should have to wait a period of almost six months to obtain a certified copy of a document. That is definitely unheard of.

Great process
Great process, excellent time frame and correspondence
Not an honest OR fair priced company STAY AWAY!!
This company does not offer support from start to finish, the charge triple the amount of the cost to do it yourself, they do not disclose that your upfront charge does not include the actual product, and they do not honor your selections of transport on the order! Do not use this company for anything. You can literally call your states vital records office and very easily do it yourself for a third of what these con artists charge you!!

Experience with Vitarecordsonline was easy
This was so easy to do on my computer. I need this certified copy to renew my driver's license and to update my passport.
It was so easy

It is taking much too long
It is taking much longer than they originally told me. When I try to follow up I still do not get an answer as to when I will receive my document. First they said it would take 6-8 weeks then it is suddenly 4 months. No updates. I ordered in May and still have not received anything (Sept 23, 2025) I have written to them numerous times. In the meantime I ended up investigating how long it takes NY city to obtain my birth certificate and they told me that this organization is NOT AUTHORIZED to order birth certificates from NY city. I ordered it from the correct website and received it in 2 weeks. There is something fishy about this website.

This was quite the process the first…
This was quite the process the first time around. However the 2nd contact with the ladies I spoke to was wonderful. So kind and helpful in their time and information. I finally have a copy of my birth certificate for the enhanced license )and whatever else may happen in the future). Thank you!
