Dear Customer,
Thanks for joining and trusting us, much appreciated!
We would like to inform you Residents have a maximum period of 30 days to register their child's birth in the UAE. If the parents are of different nationalities, the child will adopt the nationality of the father.
To process the birth certificates, a parent must submit the following identification papers to the hospital where the child is born, or to the relevant health authority in the emirate:
attested Arabic translated marriage certificate, if it is in a language other than Arabic
copy and original of husband's and wife’s passport and residence visa
birth notification details from the hospital
discharge summary from the hospital.
All expatriates must get birth certificates attested by Ministry of Health and Prevention and Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation. Birth certificates stamped by Department of health-Abu Dhabi (HAAD) or Dubai Health Authority (DHA) are equivalent to the seal of Ministry of Health and Prevention.
Residents have 120 days from the birth of their child to arrange the formal documents which includes birth certificates, passports, Emirates ID and visas of their new born babies. If the residence visa is not finalised within 120 days, then a fee of AED100 per day would be charged for each day over the 120-day period, and the baby will not be allowed to exit the country. Read details about how to sponsor a residency visa for your children in the UAE.
Based on the birth certificate, you can apply for a passport of the baby.
Expatriate residents need to apply to their embassy in the UAE.
