Bereavement Registration

All deaths must be registered with a registrar of births and deaths in the area where the death happened. They must be registered within five days unless a coroner is investigating the circumstances of the death.

A death that occurs in the county of Kent may be registered at any of the main registrars' offices provided by Kent County Council. All these offices are open Monday to Friday during normal office hours. They operate an appointment system so you must telephone for an appointment.

There are a number of other offices, with varying opening hours, throughout the county. One of these may be more convenient and you should discuss your requirements when you telephone for an appointment.

Appointments

The appointment telephone number is 08458 247400.
