The Coroner will inform the Registrar of the person who should be notified that the death has been registered. The Registrar will send that person a form for Social Security purposes. This should be read and completed before returning to the local department of Social Security Office as soon as possible.
That person may then need to purchase some death certificates. Each certificate is a certified copy of the entry in the Death Register and costs £3.50 whilst in a current register, or £7 once the register has been completed. Certificates may be required for things as diverse as Bank and Savings Accounts, Insurance or Pension Schemes and Car Registration.
Where there is a delay between the death and the holding of an inquest it is possible for the Coroner to issue interim death certificates if requested. Contact the Coroner responsible for the inquest.
