What documents are needed to register a child?

In addition to bringing joy to the family, the birth of a baby also requires parents to pay attention to the need to register the child's household registration in a timely manner. Because only after the baby is registered, his schooling and employment will not be affected when he grows up. If he is not registered, the impact will be great, so the child must be registered. Registering the child's household registration is not something you can do by just taking the baby with you. You also need to prepare some relevant information and documents. Only when these documents are complete can you successfully register the child's household registration.

1. ID cards and household registration pages of both parents:

To register your child’s household registration, you need to bring the original and a copy. If you don’t have a household registration, you need to apply for your own household registration first, and then register your child’s household registration. The age, date of birth and name on the ID card and household registration book must match and cannot be different. Also, check whether you meet the age for marriage and the legal age you have reached.

2. Marriage certificate of both parents:

To register your household registration, you need to bring both parties’ marriage certificate. The marriage certificate is used to determine whether the parents have reached the marriageable age and whether it is a private marriage. You cannot register your household registration without a marriage certificate.

3. Letter of certification from the parents’ work unit or neighborhood office:

To register your child, you also need to bring a marriage certificate from the street. If you are a staff member of an organization, you need a letter of certification from the organization.

4. Child's birth certificate:

A child’s birth certificate is required to register the child’s household registration. A birth certificate is a certificate issued by the hospital where the child is born, recording the child’s date and time of birth, weight, etc. The minimum requirement is that it must be issued by a township health center.

Another important item in registering your household registration is the birth certificate. After getting married, you need to go to the local health center for a check-up. If you are pregnant, you will be issued a birth certificate.

6. Other materials:

If it is a second child, you will need to bring some other materials, receipts for social maintenance fees, and then issue a second child birth certificate when registering the child.
