In our bureaucratic world, even the smallest person is required to have a document. The first paper of a newborn is a birth certificate, and the child officially receives a first and last name. After the birth of a child, you have a month to register the fact of his birth. Registration of births in Russia is handled by registry offices, so you need to find the department closest to your place of residence.
Necessary
Passport, marriage certificate (if any), certificate from the hospital
Instructions
Step 1
Formally, both parents must be present when the infant is registered. If this is not possible, then the absent (as a rule, this is a mother, who already has a lot of worries) writes a statement of the established form: “I, (full name, passport data) trust my husband (full name, passport data) to register our common son (daughter) (Date of Birth). Please give your child a first and last name. Then the couple will be able to independently obtain a birth certificate for a son or daughter.
Step 2
If the parents are not officially married, then contrary to popular belief, the father will not need to adopt his own child. The personal presence of a man who writes a statement that he recognizes a son or daughter is enough. On the basis of an application at the registry office, along with a birth certificate, you will be given a certificate of paternity.
Step 3
If the mother gave birth to a child alone, then a dash is put in the column "father". In this case, the woman has the right to give the child any patronymic she wishes. The child is given her surname.
