Overview

Birth Certificate is the official recorded proof of a person’s birth at a particular time and place in this world. This crucial piece of recorded proof gives a person the documentary evidence and the citizenship rights related to that country where he or she was born. Birth Certificate is also the first official identification document of a person, which tells about the birthplace and the actual age of that person as well.
