South Carolina H3086 requires the Department of Public Health to issue a Certificate of Foreign Birth for U.S.

South Carolina H3086 amends the state code to require the Department of Public Health to issue a Certificate of Foreign Birth for U.S. citizens born abroad to South Carolina residents. The certificate must be labeled and show the actual country of birth. The name on the certificate must match the evidence of U.S. citizenship. If the name on the evidence differs from the foreign birth record, the state registrar lists the name as indicated on the evidence. If there is reasonable doubt about the child's identity, additional documentary evidence may be required.
