NEW REQUIREMENTS FOR CANADIAN PASSPORTS COMING

Passport Canada is implementing changes to its birth certificate requirements for general passport applications. As of Feb. 1, 2011 for Canadians born in Canada, Passport Canada will only accept birth certificates issued by a provincial or territorial vital statistics agency to support a general or a child’s passport application, entitled “Birth certificate,” “Certificate of birth” or “Certificat de naissance” or a “Certificate of citizenship” issued by Citizenship and Immigration Canada. Some exceptions apply for certain provinces and territories.
