Continuous, Permanent, and Systematic recording of births and deaths obtained under the RBD Act, 1969 is called the Civil Registration System.
The registration of births and deaths is done under the provisions of a Central Act, Registration of Births and Deaths (RBD) Act, 1969, and the corresponding Rules framed thereunder.
The normal period of 21 days (from the date of occurrence) has been prescribed for reporting the birth, death, and stillbirth events.
If the event of a birth or death is reported for registration to the prescribed authority within the normal period of 21days, no fee would be charged.
If any event of birth or death is not reported for registration within the 21 days, the same can be reported any time under the Delayed Registration provisions prescribed under Section 13 of the Act with payment of the fee prescribed.
