Vital records office offerings may be limited by date and type of certificate. If you need a copy of a birth certificate, death certificate, marriage certificate, or divorce certificate, contact City of Ottumwa Health Department before you apply to make sure they can assist you. If they cannot provide the documents that you require, you will need to use our directory to choose a different vital records office in your state.

To prepare for your visit to City of Ottumwa Health Department, you should make sure you have all of the necessary documents.
