Arkansas Birth Records
To begin, add a birth record or view a list of locations and resources for Arkansas birth records.
The search for birth records is most often undertaken on a state-by-state basis. If that's the case, you may find yourself searching for Arkansas birth certificates, which are, thankfully, easy to find.
In the State of Arkansas, birth records are under the control of the Vital Records Department of the Arkansas Department of Health. There are statewide birth records available that date back to 1914, with some records from the two most populous cities (Little Rock and Fort Smith) dating back all the way to 1881.
In most cases, birth records aren't considered public record unless they're more than 100 years old. However, records may still be ordered by family members and those who have a legal right, either through a mail-in request or over the internet. Arkansas Statute 20-18-305 governs these records, and anyone with further questions should seek out this statute for more details.
