Child's Registration When Parents Have No Birth Registration
Quick answer
A child's birth can be registered even if the parents have no birth certificate. If an educational certificate or NID is provided as proof of age, the registrar registers the birth after conducting an inquiry if needed. Government fees and rules change from time to time. Please verify on the official website before making a final decision.
