Welcome to the City of Amarillo's birth and death certificate online ordering system. Online requests will be processed during normal business hours, Monday through Friday 8am to 4pm.
Please note the following:
- Birth records for the city of Amarillo and Potter County are available dating back to 1931. Limited records could be available dating back to 1908. We only hold records for Randall County that's within the city limits.
- As a Remote Birth Access site the City of Amarillo is directly linked to the Texas Department of Health/Bureau of Vital Statistics birth database and is able to access certified abstracts of birth records for births which occurred anywhere in the State of Texas. The abstract of birth facts is printed right in our office and is a legal birth certificate which can be used as your basic personal identification document. These records are available from 1926 to present. This document is not recommended for use to obtain a passport as it might not be accepted. These certificates are requested in the same manner and for the same Fees as other Certified Copies of birth certificates.
- Death Records are available only for decedents who pass within the city limits of Amarillo and Potter County. We cannot search for records outside of our district.
