The baby was born just a few days ago, you just unpacked things upon arrival from the hospital and dreamily make lists of things that you forgot to buy before birth? Do not forget about the legal aspect of replenishment in the family. Obtaining a birth certificate is a necessary procedure for every Russian. It is not worth delaying a trip to the registry office, if only because without the main document confirming the identity of the child, parents will not be able to draw up a variety of children's benefits and lump-sum payments for the birth of a baby.
