Being a developing country, Bangladesh has
digitalized in many sectors but registration process
for a new born baby in this country is still the
conventional system. Manual method is complex &
can cause inaccurate registration which may lead
to different problems like invalid identity, cost of
registration, loss of birth certificate, wrong
population statistics, forgery in information and
also it fritters away considerable time. Ensuring
every child’s birth is must for every country to
gather accurate population statistics as it is
essential in social and budget planning by a
government to allocate enough resources to meet
the needs of citizens. So, there is a huge potential
of globally accessible mobile-based registration
system. The ultimate purpose of this research is to
create an automated birth registration system to
issue birth certificate immediately to a new born
baby in Bangladesh. The proposed system will help
the government in terms of being a globally
accessible portable system, reducing the cost of
registration and by creating a national database
for future use. This study aims to establish mass
registration including underprivileged people from
rural area through mobile system. Registered
children will be able get medical support,
educational & all other government facilities
through this system. The meaning of a successful
registration system is that it should be complete,
continuous, permanent and compulsory.
