Registering a newborn in Greece when living abroad
When a child is born outside Greece, the birth is not automatically registered in Greek registries. For Greek citizens living abroad, registration is essential for citizenship records, family status, inheritance rights and future administrative actions. ELLYTIC supports families through the Life Events process for birth registration.
Why birth registration matters

- inheritance and succession
- future property ownership
- later AFM issuance for the child
