A man was born! And this means that in addition to the pleasant troubles associated with his upbringing, bureaucratic affairs are also waiting for you - the preparation of the first documents of your baby. Today we will tell you about what documents are needed to register a newborn, which are legal confirmation that the baby was really born.
REGISTRY OFFICE - the first place to visit after discharge from the hospital. You must bring documents for registration of the newborn there. A record will be made in the registry office book confirming the birth of the child, and his personal data will be indicated for the first time - surname, name, patronymic. After a few days after the documents have been checked, the mother and father will receive a birth certificate for their baby. According to federal law, newly-minted parents must turn to the registry office within the first thirty days of their life.
The list of documents for registration of a newborn in the registry office:
- Certificate from the maternity hospital (it is given to the woman in labor at discharge).
- Application (you will write it in the registry office itself).
- Passports of parents.
- Certificate of marriage.
If the parents of the baby are not married, and the father recognizes paternity of the child, then along with the birth certificate, a paternity certificate will also be issued. A certificate is also issued that allows you to receive a one-time allowance.
Passport Office
The next point where you need to visit one of the parents of the newborn is the territorial department of the FMS, or more simply, the passport office. Take along the birth certificate of the baby and the passport: yours and your husband, they will make an entry on the page "children".
Documents for registration of a newborn at the place of permanent residence of one of the parents
According to the current legislation, it is possible to register or, in simple terms, register a child only at the address where either his mother or his father are registered. Even if you have a living area where no one is registered or close relatives are registered, your baby will not be entered in the house book of this house or apartment.
Documents required for registration of a newborn at the place of residence:
- Birth certificate.
- Passports of parents.
- The consent of the second parent, if the mother and father are registered in different places.
It is necessary to register a child within 90 calendar days from the date of birth, otherwise parents will face a substantial fine - 2.5 thousand rubles.
This is the list of documents for registering a newborn. But there are a few more papers that your child must draw up - this is a medical insurance policy and citizenship of the child.
Do not forget!
If the first document (of the last ones) is missing, problems with the clinic can occur. Urgent medical care will be provided for you, but do not forget that during the first year of your child’s life you will visit a doctor every month. Better to make a policy right away! Contact the insurance company of your choice with the birth certificate of the baby and the passport of one of the parents. First you will be given a temporary policy, in a month - the main one.
These are the documents for registration of a newborn, which must be issued in the first months of his life.
