To report birth outside US, you must contact US embassy with the following documents;


birth certificate, translated and notarized
marriage registration, notarized copy
ID of you and your spouse


After that you must apply for US passport for the baby to be able to take him/her back to US. It may take more than 6 weeks to get US passport, so check with the embassy first or you may get stuck there with the baby.
