BIRTH REGISTRATIONS

For children born on or after August 25, 2008, parents may now complete the Statement of Live Birth on-line and electronically submit it directly to ServiceOntario's Office of the Registrar General. Births occurring in the City of North Bay will no longer be registered with the municipality. Instead, parents are encouraged to use the Newborn Registration Services at www.serviceontario.ca/newborn. This new service allows parents to electronically submit the Statement of Live Birth and submit applications for a birth certificate and social insurance number at the same time.

Travel Letters are no longer available for births occurring on or after August 25, 2008. If parents are required to travel with their newborn and have not applied for a birth certificate at the time of registration, please contract the Office of the Registrar General at 1-800-461-2156 or visit www.serviceontario.ca.
