So, let’s get started with an introduction to a birth certificate.

Birth Certificate: An Introduction

Birth certificate is a legally documented proof as per the Birth & Death Registration Act 1969 of India, which a government issues in the name of the applicant or the ward of the applicant. This registered proof states the name, date, place of birth, parents’ names, and registration details of that individual. With this certificate, one can easily claim citizenship and access to various rights and beneficial government schemes.

What if you fail to obtain it within 21 days of birth of a baby? 

Certainly, the unregistered birth of an individual won’t let him/her to claim government facilities, such as PAN Card, Aadhaar Card, Voter ID Card, bank account, etc. With no such proof in hand, the person can never go abroad because he or she won’t be able to produce the birth proof. So, the visa and passport application would be rejected.

So, do you have unregistered birth and thinking what to do?

First, you need to find out who creates birth records in your region. Non-residents can request Indian embassy to discover the procedure.

Who does register a birth in India? 

India is divided into two parts: Urban and Rural India.

  1. In Urban Areas: The Registration of Birth & Deaths Act, 1969 mandates birth registration. The union government has authorized Municipal Corporations as a competent authority to record every birth’s details in the region. Specifically, it is the registrar or sub-registrar in that Municipal Corporation that addresses this concern. Even if NRIs raise such request, this authority does verification in the backend. And, Indian embassy acts as a mediator, which forwards their request to it.
  2. In Rural Areas: This is basically concerned with the village locations where Gram Panchayat and the para-medical staff registers it.

How to apply in-person if you have lost it and want to reapply? 

This process will help those who are ready to stand in long queues for hours and face hassles. You should take off from routine work to transit from one office to another.

Remember, the municipal corporation keeps a record for 15 years in its files. A person can visit there and apply for it online by filling the form called a NABC or non-availability of birth certificate. Submitting this form will help you to obtain your Indian certificate of birth.

To get rid of these problems, download the form online and apply for the certificate.

What if one cannot reach out to his/her place of origin in India to apply for this proof?

At present, online application is in the process. It means that being physically here for birth proof application is not necessary. All thanks to digital India campaign!

These days, anyone can explore the national portal for birth registration or the municipal corporate website on the phone; access its declaration form PDF; fill in necessary details; attach supporting documents, and it’s done.

In the nutshell, these steps will make your application procedure way easier.
