Registering a birth in Qatar

Post new topic

David

Hi,

About to have a baby or already had children? Let's share your experience about the paperworks for registering a birth in Qatar.

What are the formalities to obtain a birth certificate?

What is the procedure to follow if both parents are of the same nationality or for a mixed couple?

Thank you in advance for participating,

David

Hi David,
Check out the following link:

I registered my child's birth in 2012 and it was quite straight forward (and the process has been streamlined since then!).  Any delivery unit will give you the correct paperwork from their side.  I'd recommend getting a few aditional copies of the birth certificate whilst you're there-some embassays keep an orogional when proccessing the passport as well
