The Ministry of Home Affairs under the Civil Registration and Vital Statistics department has unchanged its operations and methodologies in registering of citizens and immigrants born and living in the Kingdom of ESwatini.

This includes registering of proceedings such as birth, death, stillbirth, marriage and civil partnership is a legal requirement. These registrations are an integral part of identity documentation, providing a certificate to support further personal applications, for example, for passports and other related registration activities. The headquarters of the civil registration centres in the Kingdom is working directly with its regional substations which are a successful story of the government’s decentralization drive.

Regional Civil Registrars found in all the substations liaise frequently with the office of the National Civil Registrar on the operations of the regional level. The Ministry of Home Affairs through Civil Registration and Vital Statistics Department is proud to provide guidance on all related registration matters, including change of surname, alterations, and external registrations, divorce nullifications, marriage clearance and registrations, birth and death registrations, identity card applications to their Majesties, the public, Registrars, authorized persons, local authorities, Ministers, Members of Parliament and government officials.
