How to Obtain a Vault Copy of Your Birth Registration Certificate

The birth certificate at the bank is a direct official record of your birth issued directly by the government. Unlike a simple birth certificate, a vault copy contains detailed information including the original record of the birth. It often includes the signatures of parents or informants, the names of attending physicians, and even details of the hospital or place of birth. This document is usually printed on the security card to prevent tampering and is often used for legal purposes such as immigration, citizenship applications and passport issuance.
