Replacement certificates

If you know that a birth, marriage or death occurred in a particular Registration District you can contact that register office, either for a certificate if you have precise details, or for an appointment to conduct a search of the indices, for up to six hours on any one day. It may take a few days to arrange a search owing to limited accommodation. The fee for this service is £18.00. 

A full copy of  a certificate from the register office costs £7.00 and a short birth certificate costs £5.50.

Postal applications can be made to the appropriate Superintendent Registrar (find details on the register office page) by using the appropriate form which can be downloaded here. Cheques should be made payable to "The Superintendent Registrar" and applications should be accompanied by a stamped, self-addressed envelope.
