Birth and first registration
When a birth is subject to Candeian registration, the child has the right to registration without undue delay, a name and preservation of their identity.
The essentials
Lack of a foreign document, migration status, statelessness, disability or an unknown parent do not justify a blanket denial of registration and protection. Under the proposed order, the Civil Registry must record what has been established and identify what remains uncertain.
Record without inventing
Practical consequence
In Sistema Candeia, the registration flow must accept proportionate alternative evidence and must never “fill gaps” by inventing a date, parentage, place or nationality.

Consult the related provisions in the Proposed Constitution.
The register must distinguish what has been established from what still requires determination
It may be entered in the register through the competent procedure.
It must be marked as uncertain and submitted to a fact-finding procedure, not filled in for convenience.
It does not justify a blanket denial of legal personality when the person's existence can reasonably be established through proportionate alternative means.
