Birth registration overdue for people born abroad and have citizenship Vietnam

Birth registration is the process of recording a child’s birth in an official government registry. It is an important legal process that establishes a child’s identity and citizenship. In Vietnam, all births must be registered within 60 days of the child’s birth.

However, there are some cases where children born abroad may not have their birth registered in Vietnam on time. This can happen for a number of reasons, such as if the parents are unaware of the requirement to register the birth in Vietnam, or if they are facing challenges in obtaining the necessary documents.

If a person born abroad with Vietnamese citizenship does not have their birth registered in Vietnam, they may face a number of challenges, including:

Difficulty obtaining a Vietnamese passport or other identity documents
Difficulty accessing government services and benefits
Difficulty enrolling in school or getting a job
Difficulty transferring property or inheritance

To register a late birth in Vietnam, the child’s parents must submit a number of documents to the consular department of the Vietnamese embassy or consulate in the country where they live. The required documents may vary depending on the specific case, but typically include:

A birth certificate issued by the authorities in the country where the child was born
A copy of the child’s passport or other identity document
A copy of the parents’ passports or other identity documents
A completed birth registration form

In some cases, the consular department may also require additional documents, such as a sworn statement from the parents or a letter from the hospital or other medical facility where the child was born.

Once the required documents have been submitted, the consular department will process the birth registration request and issue a Vietnamese birth certificate to the child.

It is important to note that there may be a fee associated with registering a late birth in Vietnam. The fee varies depending on the consular district.

If you have any questions or concerns about registering a late birth in Vietnam, you should contact the consular department of the Vietnamese embassy or consulate in the country where you live.
