The Birth Report, referred to locally as "Lapor Lahir," is an official document issued by Indonesian Immigration to record the birth of a child born to a foreign resident. This document is essential for applying for the child's stay permit and for enrolling them in school.
The Birth Report or Lapor Lahir is crucial for applying for a permit for your child to stay legally in Indonesia, such as KITAS or KITAP. Without this report, your child won’t be able to secure legal status in the country. Moreover, the Lapor Lahir is a key requirement for schools, as they need proof of the child’s identity and legal residence. It’s also necessary for other legal processes, such as getting an Indonesian passport or health insurance. If you want to learn more about the Birth Report, feel free to reach out to us today.
