We can advise you of the whereabouts of the relevant Registry Office in Gloucestershire and can assist with transport and the times the Registrar is in attendance.

Who can register a death?

  • Any relative of the deceased
  • Any person present at death
  • The occupier of the house where the death occurs
  • The person arranging the funeral

What do you need to register a death?

The procedure for registering a death is a simple interview with the Registrar who will require the following information:

  • Date and place of birth and death
  • The full name of the deceased
  • Home address of the deceased
  • The marital status of the deceased
  • The occupation (if any) of the deceased
  • If the deceased is female, her maiden name and her husband’s full name and occupation.
