Answer: The registrar will require the medical certificate from the doctor or hospital relating to the deceased. If the death has been referred to the coroner and a post mortem has taken place the medical certificate will be taken by the Coroner's Officer directly to the Register Office. It would also help if you could bring the deceased's medical card with you. If you wish to take advantage of the Tell us Once service offered following the registration of death, you should bring with (if available) the deceased's national insurance number, valid passport, valid driving licence, blue badge, library card, DWP benefits letter.
