Birth Certificate

If you're an Afghan national residing in Germany and have been asked by the German authorities to obtain a Birth Certificate, you can get one from the Consulate Section of the Embassy of Islamic Republic of Afghanistan in Berlin. Please read the following instructions and information carefully:

Visit the Consulate General in-person during official working hours to obtain the Birth Certificate.
Bring the following required documents:
Proof of Afghanistan Citizenship: Original Tazkira (National ID) or Afghan Passport, along with copies.
Two recently taken passport-size photographs.
Proof of Address/Residency in Germany: Germany Identity Card (Personalausweis) and a copy of it.

The Consulate Section charges a fee of 30 euros for the Birth Certificate, payable in cash or by debit card (with a 1-euro surcharge).

Fill out the Application Form online (found here) and submit it. You will receive an Application Code starting with BCxxxxxx. Save the code (take a screenshot) and present it along with the required documents at the Consulate General's counter when you are called into the queue. The Consulate General staff will process and issue the Birth Certificate after an initial document assessment.
