36. The clerk of the court or the recognized adoption society indicated by the court must also forward a document, drawn up according to Form 2 of the schedule, to the depositary of the duplicate register where the act of birth of the adopted child or a certificate of the judgment of a previous adoption was recorded.

Such document shall be transcribed forthwith in the margin of the act of birth of the adopted child or of the certificate of the previous judgment of adoption.

When the adopted child was born in another province or in a foreign country, a copy of the judgment of adoption shall be sent to the registrar of the province concerned or, in the case of a foreign country, to the Minister of Justice of Québec, who shall send it through diplomatic channels to the officer performing duties in such foreign country which are equivalent to those of the general registrar of a province.
