Registering a birth in Czech Republic

David
#1
Hi,

About to have a baby or already had children? Let's share your experience about the paperworks for registering a birth in Czech Republic.

What are the formalities to obtain a birth certificate?

What is the procedure to follow if both parents are of the same nationality or for a mixed couple?

Thank you in advance for participating,

David

for mixed couple - when one of parents have czech nationality isn't problem also baby  of czech parent born abroad can apply for born list - and citizenship in CZ
by law  a child born in the Czech Republic, to non czech nationatilies (both parents) do not get citizenship.

Does anybody have any information about what is required when moving to Czech with a child who has one Czech parent. My fiance is Czech but out baby son has an Irish Passport and Birth Certificate. We are moving to Czech in a few weeks. What is required to register him there and get Health insurance and Child Benefit there?
