Hi all, we live in Zug and after the recent birth of our son here in Zug, we started the process of getting his birth certificate. We were told that we need to register our civil status (married) before we can get his birth certificate. Now to get our civil status updated, we had to submit OUR birth certificates and in my case, i.e person born in India, they say that it can take up to 5 months to get my birth certificate verified. To note is that we are both EU citizens and got married here in EU. Has anyone else gone through this process? How long did the process take for them? Does being an EU citizen (but being born outside Europe) help to have a shorter process? Also, related note, does anyone know rules to drive to Germany/Austria with a newborn and only his birth confirmation/document from commune (awaiting registration)? Thanks y’all. submitted by /u/harsh_beer
