Birth and marriage records for Silver Spring and the Ukrainian office
The Ukrainian citizenship registration of a child born in Silver Spring needs the U.S. birth certificate, which in Maryland comes from the Division of Vital Records of the Department of Health, in Baltimore, 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 Maryland page has the fee.
In Montgomery County, where Silver Spring is, marriage records are kept by the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Montgomery County (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records), and for a new surname in a Ukrainian passport that certificate goes apostilled and translated.
