    The hospital provide birth certificates on your country? Here it is the registry office and they do it with the parents present.

      They serve an agent. Essentially, validating that the birth did happen.

      Kind of important for citizenship.

      That being said, parents are supposed to review before the send it off.

      I was thinking the same thing. I’m pretty sure you need to sign the documentation after double checking what the registrar has put down. We have up to 6 weeks too to register the birth if you haven’t had chance to decide on a name yet.
