      Apple Tan Peng Gor, chen ping guo (陈苹果). Told him no need dialect name but he insists say important cos that is his dialect.

        wow so many parents got their DD with the same name, Apple Tan Peng Gor (Chen Ping Guo) 陈苹果… you all gang up one ar? haha…


        Anyway, to write name "as in NRIC" doesn’t need to include the hanyupinyin even if the hanyupinyin is in the IC.

                I notice many will not use the surname in dialect form. Like Lee, they use Li and become diff from the family. Actually i don’t quite like some people like to translate from eng name, that night the star search this guy Romeo Tan then chin name is chen luo mi oh.

                  My boy’s one is Banana Wong Xiang Jiao.

                  Hubs had totally no objections to the name and just followed with whatever I wanted. He did not ask for surname to come first.

                  We printed out his Chinese name in a few different sizes and cut out when doing the BC at the hospital.

                        We recently changed a Chinese character in our 9 y.o boy's birth cert, just go to ICA, a level above the passport collection, to process the change. Paid $x for 1 character change, get an extract an hour later. Very simple process.


                        Hi Jennifer

                        According to the officer, the original BC will have to be returned to them and from then on, you will only hold a Birth extract.

                        Does the Birth Extract look the same like the original?

                        Thanks.

                        Exactly the same except the title is BIRTH EXTRACT.

                        I made a photcopy of the birth cert before surrendering it 😄 Just a keepsake for memory.
