What is an extract?
Let's imagine that the birth certificate of a child – is original document, which parents receive at the maternity hospital or at the registry office immediately after birth registration. But sometimes there is a situation when:
- certificate lost or damaged,
- an additional copy is required for another institution,
- or a document confirming birth registration from the State Register of Civil Status Acts (DRACS) is required.
That's when it's drawn up extract from the State Register of Civil Status Acts of Citizens on State Registration of Birth. This is not a duplicate certificate, but official extract, which indicates the same data as in the certificate, but it has legal force for submission to official institutions.
How does an extract differ from a certificate?
The main difference – in document form:
- Certificate <TAG1> is a strict reporting form with a coat of arms, colored, often laminated, with a signature and seal.
- Extract <TAG1> is an A4 sheet printed on plain paper, but also has a signature, seal and QR code (in modern format) – and can be checked online.
Extract is more often used in electronic document management or when you don't want to risk the original certificate.
When extract is required: some examples
- when submitting documents to the court;
- to issue citizenship or passport;
- when changing the surname, first name or patronymic;
- when processing documents abroad;
- in case of loss or damage of the certificate.
How to get an extract?
Everything is quite simple here. There are several ways:
- Through TsNAP <TAG1> is the most popular way. Come with your passport and write a statement.
- Online through the "Diya" or "E-Malyatko" portal <TAG1> if the birth of a child is already registered in the electronic register.
- In the DRATSS department, where the birth was registered – or any other, if the data is already in the register.
The deadline is usually – 1-3 working days, although it is faster.
How much does the extract cost?
As of now, the cost of extracting – is about 60-100 hryvnias, depending on the method of receipt and urgency. If you apply online – can be free, especially for children's documents.
