How to determine the origin of a child?

The origin of the child from the spouse is determined on the basis of the marriage certificate and the document of the health care institution about the birth of the child by the wife. This norm establishes a general presumption regarding the determination of the origin of a child from a mother and father who are married to each other.

To determine the origin of the child from the father - recognition of paternity - in the absence of a joint statement of a woman and a man who are not married to each other, it is necessary to apply to a court of general jurisdiction.
