Births, Deaths and Bereavement
If a child has been born or a death occurs, in Essex, then you
should register the birth or death in the Essex registration
district. Alternatively, you can attest a declaration in the
presence of any Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages in
England or Wales.
We understand that bereavement is a painful experience. Essex
County Council have experienced registrars that are there to help
you through the difficult job of registering a death or stillbirth.
Be reassured that you will be dealt with sympathy and understanding
at such a difficult time.
The links below help to explain the procedures you have to go
through.
