Where to register a birth
You must register a baby in the registration district in which the birth occurred within 42 days of the birth.
New birth registrations now take place by booked appointment only at the East Ham Town Hall:

If the baby was born in Scotland or Northern Ireland or any overseas country the birth will have to be registered in those countries.
