In Ireland it is a legal requirement that a record of every birth, marriage and death be kept by the state, when one of these events occurs, a certificate is issued to the concerned individual(s). It is possible to view birth records online, however it's not possible to see the information in a certificate format - You still need the physical document for identification purposes.

A birth certificate is required for many things in Ireland, for example: Enrolling a child in school or applying for a passport.

As technology advances we now expect everything to be at our fingertips, this includes legal documents such as driving licence records, bank statements and now birth certificates, unfortunately because of the sensitive nature of a birth certificate its not available online to print or even view.
