Late Registration of Foreign Birth (LRB)

It’s Not Too Late to Claim Citizenship

Did you forget to register your child’s birth with Home Affairs within the first 30 days? You now fall under the “Late Registration of Birth(LRB) category. This process is significantly stricter and requires proof that the child is yours and has not been registered elsewhere to prevent fraud.

We guide you through the LRB maze, assisting with the mandatory affidavits and preparing your file for the required DHA interview to ensure approval.

Parents who forgot to register their child’s birth within 30 days (often years later) and now face a complex “Late Registration” process involving interviews.

DHA-288 (Affidavit of Late Registration).

Proof of Birth (Clinic card/Foreign Hospital records).
