Company description
Vital registration in Ghana (the Gold Coast) began as far back as 1888. However, at its inception, it was registration of deaths. It was not until 1912 that the registration of births was introduced. The registration system has gone through a series of transformations just as the law establishing it has seen a number of amendments. All this was aimed at improving upon the final delivery system.

Starting as the Cemeteries Ordinance of 1888, it was first amended in 1891. In 1912, it became the Births and Deaths and Burials Ordinance, which once again amended in 1926. This was finally replaced with the Registration of Births and Deaths Act of 1965, (Act 301) which is the legislation currently in force.

The Births and Deaths Registry was therefore established by the Act 301 of 1965,  
Show more within the Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development, to handle and develop the births and deaths registration system in Ghana. Its core business is to provide accurate and reliable information on all births and deaths occurring within Ghana for Socio-economic development of the Country through their registration and certification.

Lost Birth Ceriticate.
My daughter is pursuing a course at University of Development Studies in Tamale. The school is demanding for her birth certificate which was first issued in Manhyia Kumasi with entry No. 911. Later some changes were made to her name in Accra and a new certificate was issued which she misplaced. How can she get a replacement.

Stupid service with headless leadership
Never happy with your work. Does covid19 also affected your tools for working? From February to today 29 June I can't even get my birth certificate to process my passport. They didn't give me receipt after paying ¢70 for the birth certificate on Ho, Volta region. What a stupid country to live. They are expecting me to bribe to get my certificate I will never do that .

Incompetence in dealings
I sorted to make a biometric birth certificate after a long and stressful time of waiting the certificate came and it had a mistake with my date of birth.

My dad wanted to make a new certificate since his old sheet was worn out so I added mine to his.
After another long time of waiting, his certificate came back with the names spelt wrong.
When I went to the office at Tema to tell them the National Service Personnel there told me “ I am just a National Service Personnel, my duty is to take your document” .
What Country are we living? You give someone a document with false information and when the person gets into trouble the person who signed the document is not held responsible but the person using the document.
Let’s be wise and up to task on all these mistakes.
