A long-form birth certificate usually contains more information than a standard birth certificate. A standard birth certificate is sometimes only an abstract of the information contained in the original filing. The long form may be a photocopy of the original filing on special paper. The long form may contain such additional details such as the name of the doctor that delivered you, the exact time of birth, the address(es) and occupations of the parents, whether this is the mother's first child, where the parents were born, the name and location of the hospital where the child was born.

Is birth certificate enough for kid travel from Canada to US by car birth certificate in long or short form?

As long as the birth certificate is a certified copy (issued by the state, not a hospital) and includes the parent's names, it will most likely be accepted. In some states (i.e. Florida) the short form already includes the names of the parents. However, some states have short form birth certificates that include very little information. In that case, you will need to order a long form from the state where the birth occurred. For your reference, starting January 1, 2008, you will need a passport to go to Canada.


Why has Obama not shown his birth certificate?

During the 2008 presidential race, the Obama campaign released a shorter version of his birth certificate that was authorized by Hawaii. It is a valid, legal, state-certified birth certificate and is the only kind HI usually gives. On April 27, 2011, President Obama and the White House released the long-form version of his Hawaii birth certificate. The state usually does not release this version, but the president received a waiver after a request from his attorneys. The long-form birth certificate includes more information than the short form, including the name of the Honolulu hospital where Obama was born and the name of the attending physician.
