Civil Registration Office Employees Day is observed in Ukraine every February 11. Established in 2022 by President Volodymyr Zelensky and the Cabinet of Ministers, this professional holiday recognizes the vital role of civil registration office employees in implementing state legal policy and protecting citizens' rights. The day commemorates the Law on Civil Registration Authorities, which came into effect on February 11, 1994. Civil registration offices, which were first created in December 1917, are responsible for the state registration of civil status acts, including births, deaths, marriages, and name changes. Notably, since 2015, some civil status acts can be registered online, making the process more accessible. The holiday serves to honor the dedication and hard work of these employees in ensuring the legal documentation of significant life events.
