The Registrar will enter the details into the death register, ask you to sign, and issue you with the following:
- A certificate for burial or cremation (known as the ‘green form’) unless the coroner has gien you an order for burial (form 101), or a certification for cremation. These give permission for the body to be buried or to apply for the body to be cremated. We need this form from you so that funeral can be held.
- A certificate of registration of death (form BD8). This is for benefit claim purposes only. You should read the information on the back of the certificate.
- Leaflets about bereavement benefits, and income tax for surviving husbands, wives or civil partners, where appropriate.
The death certificate
The death certificate is a certified copy of what is written in the death register. The registrar can let you have a death certificate if you want one, but you will have to pay a fee.
You may need a death certificate for the will and for any pension claims, insurance policies, savings bank certificates and premium bonds.
You might want to ask for more than one copy straight away as the price increases if you need on later on.
