Why a kit

  • Fill your details once, and every paper in the kit is filled for you.
  • All the papers for the deal, in the right order, with a checklist to tick off.
  • A kit counts as one download, however many papers it has.

What you will need

Use the papers in this order.

  1. Before you start, have these ready.

    Have ready:

    • The hospital’s or doctor’s record of the death, and the deceased’s ID proof
    • The date and place of death, and your ID proof as the informant
  2. Fill in the death report (Form No. 2) and give it to the registrar of births and deaths within 21 days of the death.

  3. Apply for copies of the death certificate using the application form. Banks, insurers and offices usually ask for several.

  4. Only if the death was not registered in time: swear the affidavit for delayed death registration and file it with the application.

  5. To have the deceased’s name removed from a family record or to claim their dues, apply for a surviving member certificate.

Official forms

These are the office’s own blank forms. Print them and fill them in by hand. They are free and do not count towards your daily downloads.

Tell us the details of this deal once. Each document in the kit then opens with those answers already filled in, marked "From kit details", and you can change any of them.

A kit is for one deal: one set of people, one property. For a different deal, start a new kit.

These details stay in this browser tab only. Nothing new is kept on our servers, and closing the tab clears them. They survive signing in with a code in this same tab.

The details of this deal

More than one person? Write the names together in the one box, like "A and B" or "A, B and C". Only the first person’s parentage and address are asked, so only theirs are filled in; add the others’ details on each document before signing.

More details (optional)
You (the applicant): first person’s address
