Have you recently had a child, but urgently need to visit your relatives in Ukraine? Or have you dreamed of traveling all your life and do not know how to realize your dream, especially with a small child in your arms? You will find answers to these questions in this article.
I bring to your attention a very vital topic: the Ukrainian birth certificate for children born on the territory of Crimea after the referendum (after March 18, 2014).
- many have relatives, friends or real estate in Ukraine;
- a Ukrainian certificate is the basis for a child to obtain a biometric passport of a Ukrainian sample, which means it makes it possible to enjoy the benefits of visa-free entry - an excellent chance for those who like to travel.
1. You need to contact GRAGS (any locality), where you will receive a refusal to register your child.
2. Further, with this refusal, you must go to court. You must have the following documents with you:
- medical report on the birth of a child issued by the maternity hospital;
- a copy of the Russian birth certificate of the child;
- copies of passports of parents (one of the parents);
- Ukrainian identification codes of parents (one of the parents);
- GRAGS refusal to register a child;
- the original receipt of payment of the court fee.
Details for paying the court fee can be found on the court's website. The amount of the fee is 353 UAH. You can pay both at the bank branch and online, through the court's website.
3. Locally, you will need to draw up a statement on the establishment of a fact of legal significance.
The application specifies the name of the court to which the application is sold, the applicant is the parents (parent), the interested person is the GRAGS department. The application describes in detail the actual circumstances, the data of the child (date, place of birth, full name), referring to the submitted Russian documents. You also need to indicate the reason for the appeal, referring to the refusal of GRAGS to register the child.
If the court makes a positive decision on your case, one copy of the decision is handed over to the applicant, the second is sent to the indicated branch of GRAGS. Advice: it is better, without waiting for the second copy to reach the addressee, to go to GRAGS yourself and present the solution in hand. On the basis of this document, you are required to issue a Ukrainian birth certificate of a child.
Also, the court can suspend the case. In this case, the applicant has five days to eliminate the deficiencies in the application and notify the court about it.
In case of refusal, its reasons must be stated in the decision. Any decision of the court can be appealed.
4. After receiving the birth certificate, you can immediately apply for a passport.
As you can see, the procedure for obtaining a Ukrainian-style child's birth certificate is not so complicated. But if you have certain circumstances that make it difficult or impossible to go through this procedure on your own, do not despair, remember that all litigation can be assigned to your legal representative - a lawyer. Understanding that this procedure will in any case require physical and financial costs (if you take on this matter yourself, then more physical, and if you count on the help of a lawyer, then more financial).
