A certified printout from the register of births is issued to you on request by the relevant registry office.

A certified printout from the register of births shows all the data that the registry office has entered in connection with the birth. You will receive the certificate, including any subsequent certifications, as a printout from the electronic register. This printout is legally equivalent to the birth certificate and can be presented instead of the birth certificate in an official context.

In addition to the birth details (including the time of birth and additional information about the parents), the printout also contains subsequent changes, such as adoption, changes to the paternity of the child or name changes.
