Registration services are still in high demand and certain parts of our business have been prioritised due to statutory timescales. 

Our first priority is the registration of deaths that are being completed remotely by telephone. Birth and marriage enquiries should be directed to the appropriate office by either telephone or email.

Copy certificates can only be purchased by telephone or email. 

Once we receive the appropriate information and payment has been made the certificates will be posted. The current timescale for producing certificates is 10 working days. 

Please note - there is no priority service for copy certificates.
