Births and death registrations:
I understand that I must check the registration entry very carefully before signing as any errors are subject to a correction consideration fee of £99.00.
I have read and understand the following.
Please bring the following supporting documents to a birth registration:
- Baby’s Red Book from the hospital or Baby’s Discharge Paperwork from the midwife.
If you are married or in a legal civil partnership only one parent needs to attend.
If you are not married or in a legal civil partnership with each other, and you wish for the father’s or second female parent’s details to be included in the birth registration, both mother and father/ second female parent must attend the appointment together.
We charge a booking fee per registration (which will need to be paid by either credit or debit card at the time of making your booking). This fee will cover the cost of two certificates. You can purchase more certificates at your appointment by debit or credit card.
Your booking fee will not be refunded if:
You are not eligible to register the birth or death You do not cancel or give at least 2 hours notice to change your appointment. You are late for your appointment and the Registrar is unable to see you.
