The office’s notice limits passport filings at the session to vulnerable groups and to people with no valid passport.

For the pickup, the passport can travel by VFS Global courier to Miami, 24 miles from Fort Lauderdale, paid by you (VFS conditions, in Ukrainian).

Birth and marriage records for Fort Lauderdale and the Ukrainian office

The Ukrainian citizenship registration of a child born in Fort Lauderdale needs the U.S. birth certificate, which in Florida comes from the Bureau of Vital Statistics of the Department of Health, in Jacksonville, according to the CDC’s directory (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).

The office wants it apostilled, with a notarized Ukrainian translation that carries its own apostille; the Florida page has the fee.
