A birth certificate documents a child's birth and is an important identity document. It is required for school admission, employment, social benefits, and passport applications. A death certificate states the date and cause of death and is needed to settle inheritance, collect insurance, and for legal purposes. Both certificates are issued by local registrars within 7-15 days of registering the birth or death. Supporting documents like ID proofs and hospital records are verified before issuance. If lost, one can apply to the municipal office with fee for a duplicate certificate.
