I don't know if this will help you much, but my daughter was born in Coban and her birth certificate only took 2 days. That unfortunately, was 4 years ago, so things may have changed, but the distance really wasn't a hindrance. We traveled within approximately 10 days after exiting PGN. Our total adoption process at that time took just over 6 months from referral to travel.
Good luck to you all! The children from that area are particularly beautiful, but then again, I am biased
