Making changes to the registration record about birth
When it comes to adding data to a person’s birth record, the law establishes a clear list of those who can submit an application. Current legal regulations also stipulate the procedure for completing such actions. If you’d like to learn more about this issue, the following information will be helpful. We’ll also explain how the services of “Prikhodko&Partners” Law Firm’s lawyers can be helpful in these matters.
Who can apply for changes to a registration record?
As for filing an application to amend a birth certificate, this can be done by:
- the person for whom this entry was made;
- his/her parents;
- his/her guardians;
- a legal representative (lawyer) whose authority is documented.
The body that reviews the application is the department of state registration of civil status acts (RCSA).
When should changes be made?
The following situations may serve as grounds for making changes:
- data entry errors;
- first or last name change;
- paternity/maternity establishment;
- court decisions, etc.
To confirm the need for changes, documents are submitted – certificates, passports, court decisions or other official evidence.
What should I do if the RCSA refuses to make changes?
If the RCSA refuses to amend your birth certificate without proper grounds in response to your application, you can appeal this refusal in court. To do so, you should file a claim with the administrative court.
In your statement of claim, it’s important to accurately state all the circumstances of the case and explain why you believe the decision of the authorized representatives of the RCSA is unfounded. It’s a good idea to engage legal services when drafting and filing such a statement of claim. This will significantly simplify all necessary legal procedures and help you achieve your desired outcome.
How will our services be useful?
The lawyers at “Prikhodko&Partners” Law Firm regularly assist clients with requests for changes to registration records. We provide the following services:

If you have any doubts about the availability of the necessary documents or grounds for amending a birth certificate, you should first consult with a specialist.
