Arizona is a "closed record" state. That means that vital records are not public record.

Money order should be made payable to Office of Vital Records. Personal checks are NOT accepted. Applicants must submit a copy of picture identification or have their request notarized and provide a family tree sketch to illustrate the family connection and possibly provide proof of family connection such as a birth certificate. Only the registrant or an immediate family member may receive copies of Birth Records.
