Registering a birth in Barbados

Hello everyone,

Have you had to or are you going to register a birth in Barbados? 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 Barbados?

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.

Hi Priscilla,

Thank you for taking your time in moderating, feels cool to know you've got some questions lined up for people who are currently living in Barbados to give an answer to.

Just a follow-up question, if a visitor gives birth in Barbados, does the baby get citizenship/passport immediately or what's the process like?

Thank you.
