When selecting a vital records office from our directory, please make sure that the records you need are available. Some offices may only offer birth and death certificates issued within a specific date range. If you need an older vital record or a death or marriage certificate copy, you may have to select a different office from our directory. Contact Ross County Health District to verify that they have the record you need.

Processing times, fees, and wait times vary by location. To ensure you receive the documents you need, it is recommended that you fill out all required documents before visiting Ross County Health District. We also suggest arriving early to avoid long lines.
