Iggy here:

I would think that they still have to register, but that there's a small
task force that is assigned to get into these records and enchant the
birth certificates so that it just doesn't register on the Muggles that
anything's odd when they look at it.  And since most people in the WW
don't drive cars, and those who do probably have modified IDs, then it
tends to keep people hidden well enough.

This task force is probably similar to the Muggle Relations Department
(or whatever it would be in the MoM...)

There's also the fact that most people in the WW who aren't delivered by
a midwife are probably delivered at some place like St. Mungos, so the
special task force that deals with Muggle birth certificates probably
only needs to alter the ones of wizards and witches born into Muggle
families.


Just another two centaurs worth.
