A birth certificate is what it is. Formats differ in different countries. It cannot be reissued. However there are other proofs in case they want your mother and father's details ie marksheet/aadhar/an affidavit endorsed by the government.

Dear Client,

Birth certificate can be issued but for that you have to visit the municipal office of the city where you were born, pay a small amount of fee and then they will give you an application form to fill all your details required to make a birth certificate and they will provide you the receipt and date of issue. Now a days these procedure can be done online by visiting official website of municipal corporation.

Thank you.

The registrar of births may not entertain any application seeking to amend your name or to add your mother's name.

For that you may have to approach court a with a suit to declare the particulars to be added as correct and seek direction to the concerned registrar to carry out the amendments accordingly.

The birth certificate cannot be reissued by the authorities concerned for any reason.

If you want to get the additional particulars added to your birth certificate and desire to obtain the amended birth certificate, then you may have to approach couirt of law to get a decree and direction to the concerned authorities for this purpose.

The time taken by the court to get this case disposed may be between 6 months to one year, the cost for this task can be enquired from the lawyer who you may engage.
