In my experience, all authorities want to know is that you were born and on what day / year. They are not interested in who your parents are / were. That is why so many have managed to survive with only the short birth certificate. As for us inquisitive
beings, we need more input and go ahead and request the full version (me being a holder of both LOL).
I hope that helps.
