The Central Bureau of Statistics began civil registration in 1921. This early system of civil registration was not universally enforced and does not cover a large percentage of the population. It was replaced by a new universal system in 1951. Records before 1951 are located at the National Archives of Mongolia in Ulaanbaatar.
