Birth Registration

The birth of every child born in the Republic of Uzbekistan to Indian parent(s) is required to be registered with the Embassy of India, Tashkent. The birth of a child in Uzbekistan is required to be registered with the Embassy within one year of the birth. A copy of the Extract from Birth certificate is issued by the Embassy to the child after registering his/her name as an Indian national and a separate Passport is issued to the new born baby.

Every child who is born to Indian parent(s) in Uzbekistan is issued a separate passport. It is not possible to include the child’s name in the passport of mother/father. There is no need to bring the new born child to the Indian Passport Application Centre.
