Registering a birth in Uruguay

Hello everyone,

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

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.

Hello, dual natinalaty is an option. But if you birth here you child will be Uruguayan first. You have to go to dnic with your child to register with birth certificade.
