Register a birth or get a birth certificate

Registering a newborn and getting copies.

Births are registered with Civil and National Registration.

Register the birth as soon as you can after the baby is born: the hospital or clinic gives you the notification you need.

Bring the parents' Omang cards.

You can also apply for a full or replacement copy of a birth certificate at the office.
