Birth Registration Certificate

Every person has a birth identity which is recorded and verified in a government database called birth registration. In other words, one belongs to this country from the moment one is born. But, no information about it is kept in the government or local government records. As a result, it will not be possible to provide proof that he belongs to this country while receiving various public or private services of the country.

So, he needs a birth certificate. Therefore, as a member of the country one has to enter or register his/her birth information in the official database. In this case, a birth certificate is issued from the local administration after applying for birth registration.

Deadline for Birth Certificate Registration

There is usually no deadline for birth certificate registration. Birth certificates can be registered at any time. However, the best time to register the birth certificate is within 45 days of the child’s birth.

Because the documents required to register the birth certificate of children aged 0 to 45 days do not have any problems. But as the age limit continues to be exceeded, more documents and attestations will be required to register the birth certificate later.

Necessary Documents

Mainly 2 types of information documents are required to register the birth certificate of any candidate. That is – firstly the attested document for confirming the date of birth of the candidate and secondly the information of his permanent residence.

Documents required for a permanent address to register a birth certificate at any age are specified. But, date of birth verification documents differ depending on the age of the child. Therefore, the documents required to register a birth certificate will vary by age. So let’s see what documents you need while applying for birth certificate registration as per “Birth and Death Registration Rules, 2018”.

Compulsory Documents For All Birth Certificate Registration Applicants

• Date and place of birth-related certificate required as per age. Check out the age-wise list of required certificates below.
• Copy of applicant’s father’s and mother’s birth registration certificate and national identity card which have been digitized or online.
• House land tax payment certificate and house holding number paper.
• A mobile number is used by the parent.
• A passport-size color photograph (may be required).

Has your permanent address disappeared due to any reason (especially river erosion)? In this case, if you construct or purchase a new residence and produce rent and tax payment receipts or any documents, that will be taken as your permanent address.

Those who do not have their permanent address should write “Unavailable” in place of their permanent address in the application form. In this case, you have to get a certificate from the responsible person that you have no permanent address.

Apart from these, below are the birth certificates and attestations required for different age periods.

Children Aged 1 to 45 Days

Attested copy of birth certificate or clearance issued by the hospital or medical institution where the applicant child was born. However, if the child was not born in a medical institution, then a certificate from the birth attendant who was present or any other proof from a local health worker or health institution.

• EPI Immunization card (if any) or hospital clearance

Children From 46 days to 5 Years

EPI card is mandatory to apply for birth certificate registration if the child is more than 45 days old. However, those under the age of 5 who do not have or have lost their EPI card will need an attestation from an EPI worker.

• EPI Immunization Card or EPI Employee Attestation (Mandatory)

Children Or Persons Above 5 Years Of Age

If the age of an applicant is more than 5 years then it becomes difficult to determine the exact age of the applicant. Moreover, children are admitted to educational institutions only after 5 years. Again applying for birth certificate registration at a slightly older age is seen by the applicants who pass various classes or board exams as well. Hence, multiple certificates or copies of certificates are required for registration of birth certificate to match the correct age and date of birth of educational institution or completion/board examination certificate.

In this case, the date of birth of the applicant is usually verified by the Certificate (Certificate) of Primary Education Completion (PSC/Class 5 Scholarship Examination), JSC Examination, SSC Examination, or similar examination.

Moreover, if the applicant does not have educational qualifications then a certificate from a competent doctor should be obtained for proof of age.

• PSC/JSC/SSC Examination Certificate
• Medical certificate

Application Fee

The birth certificate registration application fee is minimal, and free if applicable. That is the application fee as well as the required documents depending on age. In this case, up to 45 days of age (domestic or foreign) birth certificate can be registered free of charge. The application fee will be applicable from the 46th day of the child’s age. In this case, the application fee is different if applying for Bangladesh Birth Certificate Registration and Bangladesh Mission (abroad). Below is the amount of money (application fee) required to register a birth certificate:

Age (from birth)	Bangladesh	Bangladesh Mission
From 1 to 45 days	Free	Free
From 46 days to 5 years	25 Taka	1 USD
More than 5 years	50 Taka	1 USD

However, even if two other information are matched, you will see such a message, that is, the date of birth and the name of the registration office.

But if the date of birth gap is 8-10 years or more or the permanent address is an exception then “Possible Duplicate” is not likely to be identified. So if you see this problem then you should check well whether you have applied birth certificate registration of that person before or not.
