If it is found that a death register entry contains information which was not correct at the time of the registration, or relevant details have been left out, it may be possible for the details to be changed, or added, at a later date.

Application should be made to the Registration Office where the death was registered.  Advice will be given on what is required for the correction to be completed.  It may be necessary for the Corrections and Re-Registration Section at the General Register Office to be contacted.

Please contact the local Registration Office or see the General Register Office website for further information about the authorising process.
