Documents you need to register a death
You will need to bring with you the medical cause of death certificate. You will get this from the doctor or the bereavement officer at the hospital. If there has been a post mortem, the Coroner will issue the document necessary to register directlyto us.
We will check to see if we have received the document when you make your appointment.
Your checklist of the information we will require:
- Medical certificate of cause of death (unless there has been a post mortem)
- Where and when the death occurred
- The full name and surname of the deceased
- Any other names they may have been known by, including any maiden name
- Their date and place of birth (it is helpful to bring the birth certificate)
