    Posted: 06 December 2012 at 3:35pm
Hi all,

Just had a quick question about birth certificates and what not. When I give birth in March of 2013 I was wondering how I will go about doing the birth certificate.

The "donor" is from America and have no contact with him whatsoever, so I will be the only one on the certificate. Can I do this?

A bit confused.

I wouldnt think it was an issue, you would just not put anything under the father section. They should give you the forms to register your baby's birth and order a birth certificate at the hospital/birthing centre, but this (http://www.dia.govt.nz/Services-Births-Deaths-and-Marriages-Births?OpenDocument) has more information for you

I think I recall it's pretty clear in the application form & explains all cases so hopefully that'll help?

Even though the 'donor' will not have any foreseeable role in the child's life, are you sure you don't want his name recorded? If nothing else your son or daughter may want to see his name on their birth certificate one day, even if it is just a random name with no person attached. I imagine this is a tricky situation for you but you may want to think about how you will answer what I would imagine will be an inevitable question.
