Obviously, among the Ukrainian refugees who left at the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, there were also pregnant women.. Some of them gave birth abroad, so now two questions arise: how to register a child and how to arrange payments for him? The Ministry of Justice published an explanation.

First the birth certificate. To get it, a Ukrainian woman must apply to the Ukrainian consulate or diplomatic office at the place of birth of the child or the residence of one of the parents. At the same time, the ministry notes that there is no need to pay a consular fee for issuing this document..

What documents are needed to register a child abroad?

Certificate from the institution on the birth of a child of the established form.

Passports of parents or one of the parents. If there is no parent's passport, then the data is entered in the birth certificate based on the data indicated in the marriage certificate.

A woman who gave birth to a child abroad can issue a payment for him only upon her return to Ukraine. The main condition for this is the presence of residence registration here, that is, registration. In addition, you can apply for an allowance for a baby no later than a year (12 calendar months) after his birth.

To register a child, documents certifying the birth of a child must be submitted to the department of social protection of the population at the place of residence, unless otherwise provided by international treaties of Ukraine. They must be issued by the competent authorities of the host country, legalizing the documents in the prescribed manner. This was reported on the government portal.
