Disable birthday notifications for specific contacts

Hello, I would like to have option to disable birthday notification for specific contacts.

The point is I want to have saved the information about their birthday in Contacts but I don't want to be notified about it.

Thank you in advance.

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 15

Birthday showing in calendar but not entered on a contact Hi: A birthday event shows up in my calendar and I can't get rid of it. The birthday isn't entered on the contacts card - I've looked on all of my devices but the date isn't recorded anywhere. This is a legitimate contact name and birth date that I must have entered at some point and later deleted. I've tried deleting the contact and the birthday still shows in calendar. When tap on the event in calendar, I can't delete it, but I think is shows that it is coming from contacts: On the event, beside the word Calendar is a green circle and the word Contacts. Although my iPhone and iPad are synced, the event is only in my iPhone calendar. Any ideas on how I can remove the event?

Moves the birthday data from Birthday field to Notes.

Thank you for suggestion. I'm not looking for workaround, but requesting missing function. ;)

I want to use the fields for what they were created.
