What is an Unabridged Birth certificate?

With the New Laws that came into effect on the 01.06.15, many people are wanting to know what exactly an Unabridged Birth certificate is.

 

An Unabridged Birth certificate is a birth certificate that reflects the full name, ID number, place and date of birth of the holder as well as the particulars of both parents of the holder. An Unabridged Birth Certificate is the document that is the key to showing one's lineage and is the document that is required by all embassies, consulates and other officials for proving one's lineage.  All children born in South Africa after 14 March 2013 were issued with a valid unabridged birth certificate automatically and free of charge.  Everyone born before this date were issued with an abridged copy of their birth certificate. Holders of abridged birth certificates and those from countries who do not automatically issue unabridged birth certificates, must ensure that they possess this document. To clarify further for those from abroad, an Unabridged Birth certificate is also known as a full birth certificate.  For example the UK registry office issue Full birth certificates that contain the particulars of the holder as well as that of both parents of the holder. This document is the equivalent of an Unabridged Birth certificate.
