The Kenyan government has introduced a digital system for obtaining birth certificates, enabling citizens to download and print the documents online. Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen announced this change on June 22, stating that it eliminates the need for visits to Huduma centres or civil registry offices. This decision followed a consultative meeting at Nyayo House in Nairobi, where officials reviewed the progress of the State Department for Immigration and Citizen Services.
