If your relative is dead, his/her birth certificate can be purchased at Matični ured in Croatia or at a Croatian Consular office abroad.
The registers are also located in [https://mpu.gov.hr/gradjani-21417/iz-djelokruga/drzavne-matice-24504/maticni-uredi-u-rh-24505/24505 '''civil registry offices'''].<br>


To prove you have a right to it, you must show proof of your family connection to the relative that is supported by Matica rođenih records and you will need to explain your purpose for requesting the birth certificate. A valid purpose is applying for citizenship based on lineage. You can purchase the certificate personally or via person authorized by the notary public.
