-Birth Registrations-

NEW!!  Effective March 30, 2009, the City of Orillia will no longer administer the Birth Registration process for babies born within the City of Orillia.  ALL birth registrations are now processed by the Office of the Registrar General. 

Parents may submit their registration using one of the following two methods:

Mail-In:  The “Statement of Live Birth” form can be picked up at the City of Orillia, 50 Andrew Street South, 3rd floor. Submit the completed form to The Office of the Registrar General, Box 4600, 189 Red River Road, Thunder Bay, ON  P7B 6L8

The Newborn Registration Service is a convenient way to complete up to three important transactions online at the same time:

1. Register the birth of your baby under the age of one year * (complete Statement of Live Birth form)
2. Apply for your baby's birth certificate
3. Apply for your baby's Social Insurance Number

* For births over the age of one year, call The Office of the Registrar General at 1-800-461-2156, to obtain a Delayed Statement of Live Birth form.
