Texas HB1887 allows adopted persons or their relatives to request a noncertified copy of the original birth certificate after the adopted person.

Texas HB1887 amends the Health and Safety Code to allow the state registrar to provide a noncertified copy of an adopted person's original birth certificate to the adopted person or their relatives upon request, without a court order. The request can be made after the adopted person turns 18, provided a supplementary birth certificate was issued and the requester provides proof of identity. The state registrar must collect a fee for the noncertified copy, equivalent to the fee for other noncertified copies.
