Interviewer instructions
B07. Place of birth

This is the place where the person was effectively born, and not necessarily the place mentioned on his or her ID card. Ask the following question: "In which rural community, or in which country were you born?"

Record the name of the [urban] "Commune", followed by the letter "C", or the name of the [rural] "Communauté rurale", followed by the letter "CR". If the name of the "Communauté rurale" is not known, write the name of the District (Arrondissement) of birth, followed by the letter "A". If the name of the District is not known, record the name of the Department, followed by the letter "D". If it is not known, record the name of the "Region", followed by the letter "R".


Example: A person was born in the Thiès Commune: record "Thiès C". If the person was born in the Thiès Department: record "Thiès D". If the person was born in the Thiès Region, without knowing in which District or Department: record "Thiès R".

If the person was born abroad, record the name of the country of birth. Example: "France" for a person born in France, "The Gambia" for a person born in Gambia.


Note: For the persons born outside Senegal, give the name of the country of birth, and not the name of the place of birth in that country.
