(P-02) Date of birth: What is (the person's) date of birth?
The date of birth should be written in digits, with no words. The boxes are marked DD MM YYYY. Write 2 digits for the day in the boxes marked DD, 2 digits for the month in the boxes marked MM, and four digits for the year in the boxes marked YYYY, e.g., if the person was born on 5 January 1970, write 05 for day, 01 for month and 1970 for year.

Get as much information as is known, i.e.:

If the exact date of birth is not known, but the person knows the month and the year, or even just the year, fill that in.
For any information that is not known, leave the box blank.
