It is usually more efficient to attend the Registrar’s Office for the area in which the death took place as the relevant paperwork will be available more readily.
Alternatively, you can register at any convenient Registrar’s Office but certificates will not be available immediately and will have to be posted to you a few days later.
The Registrar will normally issue you with a Green coloured certificate for you to give to your funeral director. The Registrar will also issue a white Death Certificate.
In the event of a cremation, the funeral directors will usually liaise with the surgery regarding any forms that will need to be obtained.
