Certified copies of the death entry for use when
dealing with the estate of the person who has died can be purchased
from the Registrar.
The purposes for which you may need certified copies
include:
- Bank and building society
accounts;
- Insurance companies who have
issued policies covering the deceased;
- Dealing with any stocks and
shares owned by the deceased;
- Probate or Letters of
Administration;
- Application for tax rebate, if
appropriate.
This list is not exhaustive and there are many other purposes for
which a certified copy of the death certificate may be
required.
The certified copies can be provided in printed or handwritten
form, if you prefer. The copies can be provided either at the time
of the registration or at a later date.
There is no free death certificate - they all cost £3.50.
