Registry Office and Citizenship Association Lienz

Since November 1, 2014, the new Civil Status Act has been applied. Since then, births, deaths, marriages, and other civil status cases are no longer recorded in books maintained by the registry offices since January 1, 1939, but in the Central Civil Status Register (ZPR). Citizenship evidences are stored in the Central Citizenship Register (ZPS).

Please note:

The transition to the mentioned ZPR and ZSR results in significant and time-consuming additional work for each "birth registry office". This can lead to delays and waiting times. It is therefore advisable to make an appointment by phone.

To record civil status cases (births, marriages, deaths), the following original documents must be presented to the registry office:

Birth certificate
Citizenship certificate
Marriage certificate (in case of divorce also divorce decree or death certificate)
Birth certificate of child/children
Recognition of paternity, declaration of custody
if necessary in case of death - certificate of domicile
