🔔 IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please be informed that the three erstwhile civic bodies—EDMC, NDMC, and SDMC—have been unified into the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD). Earlier, birth certificates were issued under the same registration number across the former corporations. To ensure each certificate now carries a unique registration number, necessary corrective measures have been implemented and revised certificates have been issued. In case of any difficulty during verification, you are advised to download the latest issued certificate from the official portals https://mcdonline.nic.in or https://rbd.mcdonline.nic.in and use it for verification purposes, as only the updated certificate will be treated as valid. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
