541.34. An act of birth drawn up by a foreign competent authority proving the child’s filiation with regard to the person alone or the spouses who formed a parental project or one of them must be recognized by the court in Québec. The same applies to a decision rendered abroad that establishes such a filiation.
In the case of a filiation that is proved or established with regard to only one spouse, an application to claim status concerning the other spouse must be attached to the application for recognition.
