Registering a birth in Tanzania

Hello everyone,

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

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.

Priscilla

I did registration of my child in DAR ES SALAAM - TANZANIA at Rita. ( 2007)

Please note : very important.

I am a mauritian and my wife is Tanzanian,
For registration the father must have 3 names... My name is Rishi Daby. so they dont accept 2 names.
I did add my father name in the middle like RISHI RAJCOOMAR DABY.. they acepted but the prob come  when i did passport for my child in Mauritius. I was ask to do affidavit with an attorney as my name doesnt correspond.

This is my message.
