Registering a birth in Lebanon

Hi,

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

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

if it is already too late to reply to this thread then sorry....if not:

a child born to foreign parents go register the baby at their embassy. But as far as I know it also needs to get registered at the district office as well (since my husband is Lebanese he takes care of the local paperwork and I take care of the German paperwork).

As far as I know you receive a birth certificate from the hospital which then needs to be registered at the district office and then taken to your embassy where they can also issue a certificate applicable in your country and register the child as a citizen of your country (this is the case for Germany at least).

I know there is a lot to research about :-(

Anyways, like I said this is quite a late reply to your post so let me know how it went....

Regards!
