Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 28 February 2019
214. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the procedure to be followed to register an Irish-born child in the case of a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [10189/19]
View answerI am informed that the registration of the birth in question was completed on 28 November 2018, and I understand that the parent now wishes to obtain a birth certificate for the child.
A birth certificate can be obtained in a number of ways. The person in question can submit an application for a birth certificate to a local Civil Registration Office by post, or by visiting the office in person. Alternatively, a full standard birth certificate can be ordered online by visiting www.certificates.ie.
A full list of Civil Registration Offices in Ireland is available on www.hse.ie. The fee for a standard birth certificate is €20.00.
