Visitor Visa for Parents - Original Birth Certificate - Please help!

[kkm_iitb]

Hi Experts,

I am applying Tourist visa for my parents.

I want to validate if

1. Original Birth Certificate is a mandatory document for Sponsoring Child. If I don't have one what should I do. However I have my marksheets (Secondary school certificate) which mentions my date of birth.


2. Original Birth Certificate is a mandatory document for parents. If we don't have one what should I do.

Thanks

If birth certificate is not available, non-availability certificate and affidavit combination would be sufficient.
