Answer
Hi Oscar,
To obtain your birth certificate you need to do it directly with the Notary it is registered in, have it notarized there, have the signature of the notary authenticated and lastly have it apostilled.
If you need help in any or all the steps, email me directly at info@colombianpossibilities.com or call us at 703-652-3850, this is a US based phone line that rings in our Bogota office.
Thanks
