What do I need to register a death?

For most deaths, the Medical Examiner (ME) will instruct you when you can register.

Some deaths will be investigated by the Coroner. They will tell you if/when you need to register.

When you register, it may be useful to bring the deceased’s:

  • Passport
  • Driving licence
  • Utility bill
  • Birth and marriage certificates

If these are unavailable, we can still register without them.
