A birth permit is a necessary document for every child before he comes to this world. So how to get a birth permit? Follow me to have a look! Procedure for processing a birth permit for a second child: On October 29, 2015, the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee decided to fully implement the policy that a couple can have two children. But what should I do with the birth certificate for a second child? The procedures for applying for a birth permit for a second child also vary according to different people, and there may be some minor differences in the regulations of each place.

Let's take a look at the general process for processing a birth permit for a second child.

For the second child, the first-child birth certificate must be prepared with the following materials: ID card, household registration booklet, marriage certificate, original and photocopied copies of children's birth certificate, recent prenatal checkup report, and special circumstances certificate. Bring these documents to the local neighborhood committee where the male party resides to collect a "Second Child Birth Certificate Application Form" in four copies.

The application form should be submitted to the unit for endorsement.

The community committees of both parties' household registration shall provide their opinions (within three working days).

After that, the street family planning agency will complete the approval within ten working days; after approval, it will be reported within five working days.

If agreed, the Community Committee will transfer the applicant's "Service Certificate" to the Street Family Planning Agency for formalities. Upon completion of the procedures, the "Service Certificate" shall be returned to the applicant.

If the Family Planning Agency of the street disagrees with the approval, it will issue a "Notification on Not Arrangement for One More Child".

The main procedure involves: 1. Receiving the "Application for Approval of Caregiving for a Second Child."

To apply for the second child, couples must first obtain and fill out the "Application for Paternity Care and Registration of Second Child" from the village committee at their female household registration location. Subsequently, they must submit this form to the respective units where both parties are employed for review.

Materials required: Marriage certificate, childbirth medical certificate, household registration book, recent maternal health examination certificate of the female party, family planning service certificate.

II. Approval by the Family Planning Department.

Both parties' respective institutions shall post the marital and family status of the couples applying for childbirth, as well as the justifications for application, for a public display for ten days. Upon no objections, they shall sign their opinions in the relevant columns of the "Application for Consideration of Second Childbirth" form, stamp their seals, and issue the "Family Planning Certificate." Subsequently, the female party's institution shall report to the township-level People's Government or Family Planning Office, along with the political affairs officer, for review.

Both parties are registered as agricultural households; the party bearing the male household registration shall be reported by the party's employer to the local people's government at the township level for examination by the family planning office's political cadre.

3. Approval by the township family planning office, and transfer to the county family planning office.

After accepting the application for having a second child and relevant supporting materials, the township-level family planning office shall first designate the township fourth surgeon to conduct a pregnancy check on the applicant's woman and issue a "Pregnancy Test Certificate", and convene a fertility qualification approval group within ten days. The meeting will fill in the "Application Approval Form for Care of a Second Child" and submit the "Meeting Minutes", the "Prediction List", the "Approval Form" and relevant supporting materials to the County Family Planning Bureau for approval.

4. After the county family planning bureau accepts it, it shall approve it within 20 days. If the conditions are met, the opinions will be filled in the "Application Approval Form" and the reply will be issued in a timely manner; and the "Second Child Birth Certificate" will be issued.

When will the birth certificate be issued? When to apply for the birth certificate is a necessary knowledge that every expectant parent needs to understand. Regarding the processing time for birth permits, regulations vary in different regions.

It is generally recommended to apply for a birth permit around 3 months of pregnancy. This is because the abortion rate in the first trimester is high, and applying for a birth permit too early is not conducive to management.

It should be noted that before establishing a perinatal health card, a birth certificate must be obtained to facilitate registration and hospital management.

Be sure to apply for a birth certificate before your baby is born to prevent the hospital from being unable to issue a birth certificate.

If you are pregnant without being married, it is essential to first obtain a marriage certificate. Then, with your marriage certificate, household registration book, ID card, maternity certificate, personal photo, and pregnancy health checklist, proceed to the community committee for processing. The birth permit will be issued by the family planning office of the sub-district office.

If it is in the countryside, then go to the second level of the township and village institutions to handle it.

The working-class migrant population in other places should handle the birth control permit according to the relevant provisions of the Regulations on the Work of Migrant Population's Family Planning.

Due to the varying policies across different regions, the timing for obtaining a family planning certificate varies and is subject to local regulations.

Both spouses should promptly visit the local family planning department to understand clearly the timing and related procedures for obtaining a family planning permit, ensuring there are no delays.
