Registering a birth in Hong Kong

Post new topic

Priscilla

Hello everyone,

Have you had to or are you going to register a birth in Hong Kong? What was the experience like?

Who is required to register the birth, and where? Can it be either the mother or father?

What documents are usually required in Hong Kong?

How long does the process to register a birth take? Are there any time limits in which the registration must be completed?

Did you register the birth with your home country and how did that process compare? Will your child be able to have dual nationality?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Priscilla
