Joint application to the ZAGS
Uzbek establishment of paternity is by joint application of the mother and the man to the ZAGS, the civil status registration office, which records it and reissues the birth certificate showing the father.
Where the parents do not agree, a court establishes it and the judgment is registered. The registration is what amends the record, and a judgment alone is not the end.
The patronymic, in two systems
Uzbek documents record a patronymic in either the Russian pattern — -ovich and -ovna — or the Uzbek one, o'g'li and qizi, both formed from the father's given name.
So establishing paternity changes the child's middle element, and a person may hold an older document in one pattern and a newer one in the other. We explain both.
Two alphabets, and Russian
Uzbekistan is mid-transition from Cyrillic to the Latin alphabet, so documents of different dates spell the same names two ways, and Russian remains widely used in official practice.
One name in one language in two alphabets. We state the equivalence rather than leaving a reader to infer a discrepancy.
The mahalla, and the certificate
The mahalla neighbourhood committee plays a role in family matters and may issue attestations that appear in a filiation file. Those are real documents within the system and we name the body.
The ZAGS certificate is on a numbered form with the round seal, and we transcribe both. See our Uzbek page.
Ordering, and what the certification covers
Upload the document, choose certified translation at $24.95 per page of up to 250 words, and it comes back typically within 24 hours as a PDF formatted to mirror the original, with a signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead. Marginal annotations are translated in place, in the margin, and every seal, stamp and registry endorsement is translated with the text. See how we translate and certified versus standard.
