Duplicate British Death Certificates are often essential documents when laying claim to the estate of a deceased person, known as the Probate process.

Whether you need to confirm the passing of a relative/friend or are looking for additional genealogy research material, these documents are supplied directly from the UK government by Vital Certificates in a speedy and professional manner.

We can additionally supply a certificate for any UK death registered overseas at a Consulate, High Commission, or with the Armed Forces.

For overseas clients needing to validate the authenticity of the certificate as having been produced in the UK, we also offer a legalisation service whereby the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office will attach a dated Apostille to the reverse of the certificate. Clients should check with the relevant authority as to whether this is necessary.

So no matter what you need, we have a friendly, professional and specialist team of experts waiting for your call. Phone us NOW on +44 (0) 330 088 1142.


Client Feedback

“I have been researching my and also my husband’s family history for a number of years and during that time I have ordered quite a number of certificates through Vital Certificates. I have found them to be extremely efficient with my orders arriving in the quoted time. Also if I have any queries I only have to email them and they reply promptly and helpfully. I only use Vital Certificates.”

Sheila Boddy, Australia

Vital Certificates are one of the most professional businesses I ever dealt with. My enquiry was a death certificate which turned out to be less than straightforward. My initial reaction was that since it was difficult they would wash their hands of it and I would have had to justify such action; but no! The staff went through 3 weeks of research establishing facts in order to find the correct identity of the deceased involved. I was on the verge of giving and felt that I was putting the staff at Vital Certificates through a lot of trouble when the outcome was doubtful. But through diligent and persistent effort they came up with a result.

I cannot recommend Vital Certificates highly enough except to say that this is the firm to deal with especially when your case is not so straightforward. They really do their best and are ready to go beyond the call of duty for their customers. Their service is tailored to the customer's needs. I have no hesitation giving them 5-star ratings.

Try Vital Certificates and you will not be disappointed. Thanks for their service.
