Birth of a Child in Poland: What Documents Ukrainians Need to Prepare
Ukrainians have been informed about the steps that parents need to take when a child is born in Poland. According to information from 'Khvylya' on the Yavp.pl website, there are several important stages.
When a child is born in Poland to Ukrainian parents, they need to perform several important actions.
First, it is necessary to register the newborn at the local Polish civil registry office within 21 days from the moment the birth document is obtained. During registration, parents will receive two certificates: a short and a full birth certificate.
Next, it is necessary to obtain Ukrainian citizenship for the child. This can be done by contacting the Ukrainian consulate that serves the area and place of birth of the child. During the registration, it is important to have an extract from the Reserve+ application with a QR code for male parents aged 18-60 years. If the mother is not a citizen of Ukraine, this rule does not apply.
After obtaining the citizenship certificate, you can apply for a foreign passport for the child. For detailed information on the registration of newborns in Poland and granting them Ukrainian citizenship, you can refer to the Telegram bot 'Legal Advisor 2.0 for Ukrainians in Poland' in the 'Family/Education - Birth of a Child' section.
