Do I need to call ahead of time to arrange for a pre-adoption birth record, or can I just show up with documentation and the fee?

You can just show up 8:45-4:45 m-f. $20 Cash or check, no credit/debit. I happen to work there and will probably be the one to assist you. Make sure your documents are certified. If you have had a change of name for example a different last name due to marriage then a copy of your marriage record is required. If you were married in Mass. we can verify per our records, but if it occurred in another state then certified from that state is required. If it is for yourself you will need to have been born on or before July 17, 1974. Hope that helps. See you soon.

No, but there is a waiting period. I don't do those, I'm the FedEx guy. I believe there's a 2 week turnaround on those.
