Birth Registrations (Queensland Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages)

Queensland births data is sourced from birth registration systems administered by RBDM. Information about the birth is supplied to RBDM based on information provided on a birth notification form provided by the hospital where a child is born, and a birth registration form completed by the parent(s) of the child.

The Birth Registration Statement contains the details prescribed by Regulation, including, but not limited to: details of the baby such as sex, birth weight and whether a multiple birth; date and place of birth; and details of the parents and previous children. The parents of a child are jointly responsible for having the child's birth registered.
