Application Procedure for Birth Registration Certificate

To apply for online birth registration, first go to the Birth and Death Registration website of the Government of Bangladesh.
To collect the birth registration certificate on the first screen you have to select the local government office. The candidate can take the certificate from his / her place of birth, permanent address or current address.
The next step will be to give the name and address of the candidate and the parents. If the candidate was born before 2001, only the parents have to give their names. Otherwise the parents have to give the national identity card number.
Finally, the phone number of the candidate should be given where the message regarding the application for birth certificate will come.
Once the online application is completed, the received application form has to be downloaded and printed. The required documents must be attached to the nearest local government office and submitted within a maximum of 15 working days along with the birth registration fee.
At the time of submission, the officer in charge will leave an office copy and give a customer a copy. When the birth certificate confirmation message finally arrives on the mobile, the customer has to take the copy with him on the day of taking the certificate.
An application ID is given after completing the online application. By providing this IDT and date of birth of the candidate, the current status of the birth registration application can be known online.

Fees and time required for birth registration

1. Birth registration for a 45-day-old baby can be done for free.
2. The fee for birth registration of children from 48 days to 5 years is 25 rupees. The fee for registration of birth from outside the country is 1 USD.

Birth registration fee has to be paid at the time of submitting the required documents along with the application to the concerned City Corporation / Municipality / Union Parishad office.

Terms of correction of birth registration information
In case of correcting the name of the father or mother, their name has to be corrected by requesting to correct the information with the birth certificate number registered online. Candidates can then apply for correction of parents' names in the birth registration.
If the parents do not have a birth certificate and the candidate's date of birth is before 2001, the name of the parents can be fixed at the time of application for amendment of his birth registration. In that case, even if one of them is dead, they do not have to show any proof of death. At the same time, there is no question of amending their birth registration certificate separately.
However, if the candidate is born after 2001, he / she will have to submit the death certificate to correct the name of the father or mother at the time of application for correction of birth registration information.
Birth registration correction procedure

Then after displaying the captcha and filling it, all the information related to the birth certificate of the person registered in the server can be seen. Here the application can be made through necessary corrections of information.
Once the application is completed, the completed form along with the required documents should be submitted to the concerned City Corporation / Municipality / Union Parishad office. Although 10 to 15 working days are mentioned here, it usually takes more time to get the revised birth certificate.
Here are some of the documents you need to keep ready:

1. Candidate's online registered birth registration certificate

2. Birth certificate of parents registered online

3. Certificate of Educational Qualification or Vaccine Certificate

Relevant documents may be required as proof of information where applicable.
Appendix

The online process of applying for a birth registration certificate has made this important process more dynamic and hassle-free. Now the process after submitting the application needs to be further uninterrupted. Many of the customers are expressing negative opinion about birth registration fee and receipt of certificate. The back-office has technically skilled manpower and new-old to solve this problem 
Appropriate steps need to be taken in processing the birth registrations. The issue of re-registering citizens who have already registered their birth online shows inefficiency in management. Receipt of birth registration issued by the government online after a certain working day of verification and selection by applying online can ultimately digitalize the country.
