JAKARTA - No longer has a signature attached, two residence documents, namely a Birth Certificate and Family Card, are now equipped with a unique code or quick response code (QR code). This model will later be implemented nationally and is a new breakthrough.

"A new Birth Certificate model like this, with plain white paper and QR code, no wet signature, no stamp, this applies nationally and this is original, not a photocopy", said the Director General of Population and Civil Registry of the Ministry of Home Affairs Zudan Arif Fakrulloh via video statement quoted on Monday, February 1.

On that occasion, Zudan also explained that these two files were no longer printed on special paper but could be printed on plain white paper and carried out by the applicant, or the community itself.

"You can print at home by requesting services online, later the file will be sent to your home via email", he said.

So, what about a new Family Card and old Birth Certificate, without a QR code?

Zudan asked people to remain calm. The reason is that these two files are still valid. "It's still valid. So don't worry, the old Family Card (KK) will still apply", he said.

This file can only be modified if changes are made in the future. So that people are asked to report changes in data and will not be charged.

"If there is a change in data due to moving house, some get married, some change jobs, fill in the blood type, don't forget, it is immediately taken care of, the data is updated", he explained.

"Take care of yourself, it's free, free of charge. Come to the local Department of Population and Civil Registration office, soon as possible", he concluded.
