South Africa - birth certificates for travel

[Workingmummyto1]

Hi,

Am sure this has been asked before but looking for some clarification! We are travelling to Cape Town his week. I have a certified copy of my son's birth certificate (that lists his details, plus details of me and my husband). Is this going to be ok for entry?

Thanks!

Do you mean you are travelling together or you are there with the child and not your husband

here you go

My husband and I are travelling together. I know we need a long form birth certificate, and have a certified copy of it. My question is really whether or not it matters that the certification was done in 2010 (when he was born) and not more recently.
