    I don't think it is possible for you to get a copy, it was a closed adoption, so no one, including you, are to know your birth mother. For travelling purposes you have an altered copy showing your adoptive parents, so getting a passport will be no problem for you.

    You can't unless you find your original parents and they may still have a old copy.

    Now there is a real copy in the courthouse, but they are not public.
