According to Article 8 Decree 63/2024/ND-CP, the guidance on processing application for birth registration, permanent residence registration, and issuance of health insurance card for children under 6 years old in Vietnam is as follows:
Processing Birth Registration Applications
Once the electronic birth registration application is transferred to the Common Electronic Civil Status Registration and Management Software of the Ministry of Justice by the Provincial Administrative Procedure Information System, the civil status official executes the birth registration operation on the software.
After the registration result, the software automatically transfers the electronic version of the Birth Certificate to the Provincial Administrative Procedure Information System to sync with the Interlinked Public Service Software, completing the electronic application for subsequent administrative procedures and sending the result to the applicant.
If additional documents are required, the applicant is responsible for completing the application within 07 working days. If the documents are not provided within this timeframe, the application will be rejected.
If any obstacles arise concerning personal ID issuance, the civil status official updates the issue on the Common Electronic Civil Status Registration and Management Software of the Ministry of Justice. The Ministry of Public Security, in coordination with the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Information and Communications, reviews, addresses, and provides the result within 01 working day from receiving the issue report from the Ministry of Justice.
Processing Permanent Residence Registration Applications
After the Common Electronic Civil Status Registration and Management Software of the Ministry of Justice transfers the electronic Birth Certificate to the Interlinked Public Service Software through the Provincial Administrative Procedure Information System, the Interlinked Public Service Software separates and transfers the electronic application (including forms and declarations filled by the applicant, electronic Birth Certificate) to the Residence Management Information System to execute permanent residence registration.
The consent of the household head, legal accommodation owner, parents or guardians is obtained through the VNeID application or the police department’s workflow. The consent period through the VNeID application is no more than 05 working days.
If the application is complete and compliant: The police officer processes the permanent residence registration on the Residence Management Information System. The process should be completed within 02 working days from receiving the electronic application from the Interlinked Public Service Software in cases where the child returns to the father or mother who is the household head and legal accommodation owner, or if the child returns to the father or mother who is not the legal accommodation owner. Other cases requiring verification according to Residence Law 2020 should be handled within 05 working days from receiving the electronic application and consent information through the VNeID application.

Processing Health Insurance Card Issuance Applications for Children Under 6
After completing the birth registration procedures, the Common Electronic Civil Status Registration and Management Software of the Ministry of Justice transfers the electronic Birth Certificate to the Interlinked Public Service Software through the Provincial Administrative Procedure Information System. The Interlinked Public Service Software separates and transfers the electronic application (including forms and declarations filled by the applicant, electronic Birth Certificate) to the Social Insurance Sector Information System to execute health insurance card issuance.
If the application is complete and compliant: The Social Insurance Authority processes the health insurance card issuance on the Social Insurance Sector Information System. This process should be completed within 02 working days from receiving the electronic application from the Interlinked Public Service Software.
If the application is incomplete or non-compliant: The Social Insurance Authority sends a notification from the Social Insurance Sector Information System to the Interlinked Public Service Software, thereby notifying the applicant through the National Public Service Portal, VNeID application, and SMS, explaining reasons for rejection and required additional documents within 01 working day from receiving the electronic application on the system.
Cases of discovering errors in the Electronic Birth Certificate

Returning Electronic Results
