How does child get registered?

Comments

• Hello Mark,
  thank you for your post.
  If you are not married when the child is born, the pregnant parent will get all the days of parental leave and sole custody of the child.
  In order for the other parent to be a legal guardian of the child and get his/her parental leave days, you need to go to the local municipality (kommunen) to confirm the paternity/parenthood.
  If you are married, we normally get the information automatically once the child is born. If you have a Bank-ID, you can log on to Mina Sidor to see if the information about the child has been updated after the birth.
  Kind regards,
  Fredrik

• Hello Isange!
  
  Thank you for your question! You may need to have the residence permit in order for your child to be registered in Försäkringskassan. You can read more general information about social insurance here.
