Municipality of Culemborg: registering a stillborn baby

Your child was born lifeless or has lived for a short time. You must declare this in the municipality where your child was born. You do this before the funeral or cremation.

Who can file a report?

  • one of the parents;
  • a funeral director;
  • someone who was present at the birth, for example a friend or relative.

Are you registering the birth of a stillborn child or a child that died shortly after birth? Then take with you:

  • valid proof of identity of the person making the report;
  • death certificate issued by the attending physician;
  • B-envelope containing information from the doctor about your stillborn child.

If your child was stillborn, you make an appointment with the municipality where your child was born for the registration. It is possible to recognize a stillborn child when registering. You can also have your child added to your marriage book.

It is free to have a certificate drawn up.
