Translating Bahraini Birth Certificates for Australian Purposes
Bahraini birth certificates are issued by the National Information and eGovernment Authority (iGA) through the Civil Status Directorate. Bahrain's civil registration system issues birth certificates in Arabic, following the standard Gulf civil registry format.
Bahraini birth certificates include the child's full Arabic name, date of birth, parents' CPR (Central Population Register) numbers and the issuing authority seal. Bahrain also uses the family registration book (Sijl al-Usra).
