01 Jamaican Birth Certificate Online

Whether you are applying for yourself, your child, or a family member, using the RGD online portal solves the problem of long lines. Once you gather the required details below, you simply input the data into the portal, choose your processing speed, and pay online.

1 Information You Must Gather First

  • Full Legal Name at Birth: First, middle, and last name exactly as recorded at birth.
  • Exact Date & Place of Birth: Day, month, year, and the parish of birth.
  • Mother's Full Maiden Name: Essential for search verification in the RGD database.
  • Father's Full Name: Required only if his name was officially recorded on the original birth record.
  • RGD Birth Entry Number: Found on Line 3 of old certificates. Entering this number skips manual searches, speeding up your processing time!
  • Applicant Info & Relationship: Your contact info and legal relationship to the person on the certificate (e.g., Self, Mother, Child).
Pro-Tip: Fathers Not on the Record If a father's name was never officially added to the birth certificate, he can still order a copy online using the mother's maiden name. However, the printed certificate will still show a blank space for the father. Officially adding a father's name requires a separate legal process ("Addition of Father's Particulars") with forms signed before a JP.

What if you MUST go to an RGD Branch in person?

While the online portal is recommended, if you are forced to visit an RGD branch in person, keep these strict verification rules in mind:

  • Valid ID Required: You must present an unexpired Government Photo ID (Voter's ID, Driver's Licence, or Passport).
  • No ID? You must present a passport-sized photograph of yourself officially certified by a Justice of the Peace (JP).
  • Using a Proxy/Bearer? If sending someone else to apply or collect for you, they must bring their own Valid ID plus an Authorization Letter signed by you and certified by a JP.
