History

In the past, birth and marriage registration in Iran was traditionally done mostly by referring to clerics, neighborhood elders, or tribal elders. Gradually registration in the current European bye method became popular in Iran. According to the decision of the Cabinet of Ministers on 12 December 1918, the regulations for the establishment of the Civil Registry Office in the Ministry of Interior were prepared and the first Iranian Identity Booklet (Shenasnameh) for a girl named Fatemeh Irani was issued on 25 December (3 Dey (month) SH) of the same year. Because of that in many years later, the third day of Dey (month) (23 or 24 December) has been named as National Organization for Civil Registration Day.[4] From March 1925, according to the law, obtaining identity booklet was required for all Iranian citizens in the areas where the Civil Registry Office was established.[1][7] The General Office of Census and Civil Registration, in accordance with the decree of 10 June 1928, began its work with independent duties and as an institution affiliated to the Ministry of Interior. With the revision of the duties and regulations related to this institution, its name was changed to the General Directorate of Statistics and Civil Registration in 1940. The last time in 1976, with the definition of new duties and structure, this agency was renamed to its current name, the National Organization for Civil Registration. After the Iranian Revolution in 1979, some of the duties and bylaws of this organization were reviewed by the Islamic Consultative Assembly in 1984.[8][9][2][3]
