Civil registration is the continuous,
permanent, and compulsory recording of vital events and the
civil status of persons and of modification of the records.
A vital event is an event which has to do with an
individual’s entrance into or departure from life together
with any change in civil status which may occur during an
individual’s lifetime. For births that occurred outside a
health facility, the attendant at birth, which can be the
traditional birth attendant (hilot), has the responsibility
to prepare the certificate of live birth (COLB). The parents
must make sure that the COLB is registered with the Local
Civil Registry Offices (LCRO) within the reglementary period
of 30 days. In the absence of a hospital and clinic
administrator or attendant at birth, either or both parents
of the child shall register the birth. When the birth occurs
aboard a vehicle, vessel, or airplane while in transit,
registration of said birth shall be a joint responsibility
of the driver, captain, or pilot, as the case may be, and
the parents. |
