How to register death
We aim to process an application for registration of a death within three working days.
A Singapore death certificate is sufficient for most purposes.Consular death registration can provide you with a British-style death certificate. A permanent and accessible record of the death registration is also maintained at the General Register Office (GRO) in Southport and, where appropriate, at the GROs in Edinburgh and Belfast.
The following documentation should be provided:
1) a completed application form, available from Consular Section or for download here (see below)
2) the local death certificate.
3) the British passport.
There is a charge for this service-please refer to our Consular fees page for more information.
