Procedure for a birth certificate online in Abu Dhabi

Newborns’ parents will receive a communication from the healthcare facility following the birth of their child. However they will not be told of the registration and login procedures until later.

They will then be directed to submit the necessary documents and pay the necessary costs to acquire the certificate.

The new online service is also available to anybody who need supplementary certificates for past birth dates granted by any of the emirate’s hospitals.
