Where can I find records of overseas births?

Before 1940:

Overseas births are reported to the State Department. Reports of overseas births up to 1940 may be with consular records in the National Archives.

Contact: archives2reference@nara.gov

Please include your complete contact information, including postal mailing address. A mailing address is required with reference questions.

After 1940:

Records of overseas births are kept by the State Department. Being born on a military base does not change this.
