What Information is Required?

Birth Certificate:

  • Place of birth
  • Full name at birth
  • Parent's names, including mother's maiden surname if married at the time of the birth

Death Certificate:

  • Date of death
  • Place of death
  • Full name of deceased

Marriage Certificate:

  • Groom's full name
  • Bride's full name prior to marriage
  • Date of marriage

If you do not know the building where the marriage took place, a much longer search is involved and could delay your certificate

Passports and Employment

If you require a birth certificate for the purposes of a passport application or employment we advise that you obtain a standard certificate.  If you were born after 1982 you will have to provide a standard certificate for these purposes.

Payment

Payment can be made by credit or debit card, incurring an additional 50p transaction charge, or by postal order, made payable to "North East Lincolnshire Council".

For those who attend in person you can use cash.

We cannot supply certificates for births, deaths and marriages which did not take place in the North East Lincolnshire Registration District. 

If you have been subject to formal adoption proceedings you will have to apply for your adoption certificate from General Register Office.  Your original birth certificate is no longer a legal document.
