Register offices
You can use a register office to:
- Register a birth
- Register a death
- Book Marriage and civil partnerships
- find records of a birth, death, marriage or civil partnership (if it was registered at that register office)
- Order a copy of a birth, death or marriage certificate
You can report a death through the Tell us once about a death service.
We are now taking bookings for civil partnerships for opposite sex couples.
The Civil Partnerships, Marriages and Deaths (Registration etc.) Act, which received Royal Assent on 26 March 2019, contains provisions for regulations to be made to extend eligibility for forming a civil partnership to opposite sex couples.
The implementation date has now been confirmed, and the first opposite sex couple civil partnerships can take place from 31 December 2019. The earliest date for giving notice of the intended formation of a civil partnership will be 2 December 2019.
Any bookings will be subject to the terms and conditions of our booking policy.
A civil partnership does not require a ceremony therefore you can choose to sign the schedule in front of two qualified witnesses by booking a statutory ceremony appointment (subject to availability). If you wish to combine the signing with a full ceremony then of course you have the option too and will need to book a venue and registrars ahead of booking an appointment to give your legal notice of intention.
