Prince Edward Island Vital Statistics
keeps a record of all births that occur in P.E.I. and
can only issue certificates for births that occurred
in P.E.I. Birth certificates are issued using the information
from the original Registration of Birth, completed at
the time of birth. The birth must be registered with
the province in order for the certificate to be issued.
A birth certificate is a primary identification document,
which means it can be used to obtain other identification.
Birth certificates should therefore be kept in a secure
location, not in a wallet or purse.
This kit is designed to give you key information that
will help you in your birth certificate application
process.
