Civil Affairs clarifies impact of birth certificate data changes on official documents
Saudi Civil Affairs confirms that amending birth certificate data on Absher requires supporting documents and affects linked official records.
The Saudi Civil Affairs Agency has clarified the implications of modifying birth certificate data on Absher, the official online portal for government services. According to the agency's response on the Ministry of Interior's X platform, amending birth certificate information through Absher necessitates the submission of supporting documents to validate the requested change. The approved modifications include adjustments to the date of birth, country of birth, city of birth, or time of birth.
A single request can encompass corrections to multiple details, provided they comply with the regulations and procedures outlined by the authorities. Importantly, once the amendment is approved, all official documents that reference the amended data will be impacted, requiring their subsequent update to reflect the changes. This encompasses vital documents such as the national ID card, birth certificate, and family records.
