Unabridged Birth Certificate (Cape Town)
Dear friends,
Your advice on the below is greatly appreciated:
I am French and my wife is British of non-South African decent. We both have Temporary Residency status.
Our child will be born in the next few days.
Questions:
(I) where can I obtain the Unabridged Birth Certificate?
(Ii) what type of documents do we need to provide for it?
(iii) how long does it take to obtain it as we need to: a) register the baby within 30 days at our respective countries and b) apply for either a French or a British passport (in order for the baby to travel)
My wife, the baby and I will be going to Europe in October for family gatherings - I am hoping that the above process will be painless, fast and straight-forward.
Looking forward to hearing from you very soon
Kind regards
Bruno (Cape Town)
