Guide to Changing the Name on a Birth Certificate

Question

How can the name on a birth certificate be changed before or after the child is registered?

Answer

Before the child is registered, it is not possible to change the name on the birth certificate because this information is already connected nationally. If a change is needed, you can apply for a name change at the local police station where the mother’s household registration is located, and this can be done simultaneously with the registration process. Please consult your local police station for specific requirements.
