Register a death

Steps to follow, advise and support when registering a death.

When do I get the death certificate?

After giving the registrar all the necessary information, the person registering the death signs the register and has the opportunity to buy one or more death certificates at a cost of £12.50 per certificate.

All certificates are certified copies of the entry in the register and may be needed for various administrative purposes. It is possible to order further certificates at a later date and we can advise you of the cost and process for this.
