An act is a written document in which the succession of a certain event is recorded., becoming the same in the official certification of that fact in question, that is to say, when it is necessary to verify it, it will only be necessary to go to it to verify it.
Document issued by a competent authority and that certifies a birth and gives the born entity of person
Generally, the minutes are carried out under the competent authority, with the presence of witnesses and in the same, a precise record of the day and time in which the parties signed it is left.
Meanwhile, the birth certificate, also known as birth certificate in some parts of the world, it is the document through which the fact of a birth and therefore the existence of a person is accredited.
To obtain the same, you must go to the corresponding civil registry or civil authority that corresponds according to the place in which the birth in question turned out to be registered.
It is the parents of the newborn who must carry out this procedure and the full name and surname of the child, the names and surnames of their parents, the date, time and place of birth will be recorded in such certificate.
Then this certificate will be filed in the corresponding place of birth and a copy of the original will be extended to the parents so that they have it with them to carry out procedures.
Meanwhile, it is from this birth certificate that the national identity document will then be extended to the person who came to the world, which identifies him or her as a citizen of this or that place.
If it happens that it is lost, a fairly common situation, a copy should be requested from the civil authority that issued it.
It is very important to take care of this type of documentation that proves the identity of an individual and for that matter is that it should be kept in safe places and away from any type of inconsiderate manipulation.
First document of a person, how it is processed and content
Whenever a person needs to prove their identity as such, before a body, authority, government or entity that requests it, they must show their birth certificate, because all your personal data are reliably contained in it, such as: Parents' name, day, hour and year of their birth and the town, province and country in which they were born, as we have already indicated.
The birth certificate is the first document that a person has, commonly, it is processed during the first months of life, because it is immediately after their birth; Parents, once the doctor of the hospital or health center who attended the woman in the delivery certifies the birth of the same, they may go to the civil registry corresponding to their jurisdiction to record the newborn boy or girl with the name or names that they have chosen and with the parents' last names.
Where is it presented and for what?
This documentation is usually requested in various agencies and institutions for reasons of various issues, for example, when a worker wants to include his children in the benefit of the health coverage provided by his employer, he will be asked for the birth certificates of his children, that corroborate the link and the existence of the same in a reliable way.
On the other hand, to process citizenships in other countries one of the requirements is the presentation of the birth certificate.
Not only his own but also that of the family member from whom he is descended and who proves that he is a native of the country to which he is applying for citizenship.
For example, my grandfather is Spanish and I want to apply for Spanish citizenship, I must present my birth certificate and the birth certificate of my grandfather that proves that he was born in Spain, without it they will not give me citizenship because there is no way to prove the origin.
In recent years, many people who decided to emigrate from their countries in search of new professional horizons and had the possibility of applying for citizenship of the destination country, had to carry out this procedure and present the birth certificate of the direct relative (father or grandfather ) that has the link with that country.
Traditionally, the child is always noted with the father's surname, although in recent times it is a recurring method that it is noted with the two surnames, the father's being the one that will appear behind the name and after the paternal surname that of the mother.
The importance of the birth certificate is such that without it it is almost impossible to carry out procedures or obtain special permits.
