54. The place of birth (column 07). For persons born in a place other than where they are enumerated the name of the county where the person was born and the corresponding area of the birthplace -- municipality/town or commune/ sub-urban commune will be recorded. For the persons born in the same place where the census enumeration staff is recording them, "in the same locality" will be written.
Persons born in another village of the same commune, where they are enumerated, or in another locality component of the same municipality/town where they are enumerated will be not considered as born in another place, but in the locality of enumeration.
The place of birth represents the locality where the mother of the enumerated person had the legal residence at the date when the birth took place. So, for persons born in maternities or birth houses situated in other places than of the mother's legal residence (residence), the locality where the birth house is located or the maternity, etc. (even this is mentioned on the birth certificate or on the identification card) is not considered the place of birth.
For persons born in another country the actual name of the country will be recorded (in the corresponding space of county).
The enumerator will inscribe in column 07 the county's name or "in the same locality", will inscribe the code of the county or country in the code box from this column (according to the list below) and the mark x will be written in the corresponding box for the area type of the birth place.
The recording of the county's name will be done according to the actual administrative-territorial division and not what existed when the enumerated person was born.
