A birth certificate serves as a primary form of identification, often required for various purposes such as obtaining a driver's license, opening bank accounts, and enrolling in educational institutions in the host country.
It serves as evidence of Indian citizenship, which may be necessary when dealing with Indian government agencies or consulates abroad, especially for matters like renewing an Indian passport or obtaining visas for family members.
When NRIs apply for visas or residency in their host country, they may need to provide proof of their identity and nationality. A birth certificate can be a crucial document during such immigration processes.
When NRIs pursue education abroad, especially at institutions that require proof of identity and nationality, a birth certificate may be requested during the admission process or for student visa applications.
Some employers in foreign countries, especially those with stringent documentation requirements, may ask for a birth certificate as part of the hiring process to verify the candidate's identity and nationality.
A birth certificate might be necessary when registering marriages or births of children born abroad, especially if the individual intends to maintain ties with their Indian citizenship or heritage.
In some countries, NRIs may be eligible for social services or benefits. A birth certificate may be required to establish eligibility for such services, especially if they have children who are citizens of the host country.
A birth certificate provides vital information for personal records and family history, which can be important for future generations and genealogical research.
