Zimbabwean Birth Certificate Help

"Certified Copy of an Entry of Birth Registered in the District of ............ in Zimbabwe"

The above statement appears on all birth certificates issued in Zimbabwe for the following reasons:

(1) When one is born in Zimbabwe, their birth record will be entered into a birth register/database kept by the Registrar of Births and Deaths in Zimbabwe.

(2) If one needs to confirm the existence of the birth record of anyone, they will be issued with a Birth Certificate.

(3) The birth certificate is an official CONFIRMATION that a birth record indeed, exist in the registrar's register/database for a particular person.

(4) The birth certificate will have details of the birth record as it appears in the birth register/database, hence the statement "Certified Copy of an Entry of Birth Registered in the District of ....... Zimbabwe"

(5) The most important number on the Birth Certificate is the "Entry number", this number is found under the date the birth was recorded in the register/database.

(6) All the other numbers on the birth certificate are for internal use by the Registrar's office (document control numbers) and have no use for the individual. So, it is important to at least remember the entry number in case the document get lost. It is easier to locate the birth record with an entry number if the need for a replacement arises.

@gmahembe Hi Georg. Would this certificate that states "Certified Copy of Entry of Birth" etc. be classified as an Unabridged birth certificate?

@Yoginee I have not had a response to an enquiry I posted on Friday.  Therefore, I am not sure if I have officially joined the forum. I see on other posts that there is a private messaging option?

How do I go about registering, if I have not already done so?  I need help with obtaining an unabridged copy of my Rhodesian birth certificate.

Many thanks

Hi Marve Ndaubvonga,

Send a direct message for further details

hi my name is sean im trying to get a copy of my birth certificate can you help please

@gmahembe what about if I don't know anything about my bith

@norestmarida2, you will need to have the exact date of birth and the correct full names.

It is also important to know whether you had a birth certificate from Zimbabwe before.

Under such circumstances it will take longer to locate the birth record because the records are not yet fully digitised and kept in their physical form

Regards

George Mahembe

Hi. I've seen from the forum that you have been able to help some folks get their birth certificates from Zimbabwe, and I'm wanting to know if you are still able to do that.

I have a young friend who has been cut off from her family without any legal documents in her possession. She needs to get a birth certificate. And I am wanting to help her do that

although I myself am not from Zimbabwe.

I have the details that she knows.

Please let me know your response. Thank you

I just finished using the services of George Mahembe. He was amazing! They went into the archives to find my birth certificate. Turn around time was superfast. I found him to be reliable, trustworthy and he communicated constantly with updates.

Georges services are like a diamond in the rough!

Thank you so much!!!

@Sharon Revell

You are lucky they are not charging more. I payed this to George and it was worth every cent! He service is outstanding. If you don't like the price you can also fly there to do it yourself... Good luck!
