If you register a child born in Michigan, you need the local birth certificate: the state’s Vital Records office issues it (CDC).

For the marriage transcription, a marriage in Washtenaw County (the county of Ann Arbor) is proven with the certificate from the Washtenaw County Clerk (CDC), apostilled.

To be used in Portugal, the certificate needs an apostille: in Michigan it is issued by the Michigan Secretary of State (Hague Conference list).
