Book an appointment
You should register a death in the Borough it occurred. This will avoid delays in receiving the death certificate.
Register a death in English and Welsh
You can register a death in both English and Welsh, but not in Welsh alone. The person registering the death must be a Welsh speaker.
Please inform the register office of this to ensure a Welsh-speaking registrar is available.
24 hour burial
We offer an on call service for deaths which require burial within 24 hours.
You will need to contact the Funeral Director to make arrangements.
