Death Certificate
A Death Certificate is a document issued by a government department; in Ireland this is the Registrar of Births, Marriages and Death; and it is a vital document to the bereaved family when it comes to applying for pensions or in matters of probate.People are often surprised when the Death Certificate is not issued exactly at the point of bereavement.
When a person passes away, a medical doctor who knew the deceased will sign a Death Notification Form, so that the funeral can proceed. Your Funeral Director can liaise with the Doctor on your behalf, if you wish. After the funeral, the family will need to register the death with the Registrar of Birth, Marriages & Death, after which the actual Death Certificate will be issued.
(1) Death takes place in Hospital or similar institution. In this instance the hospital will issue a Death Notification Form which you bring to the register of Births Deaths and Marriages at HSE Community Services Office, Kickham Street, Kilkenny.
(2) Death takes place at home; the attending Doctor will issue a Death Notification Form which you bring to the register of Births Deaths and Marriages at the HSE Community Services Office, Kickham Street, Kilkenny. You do not have to queue when you require a cert for a recent death.
There is a common but inaccurate perception in Ireland that a cremation costs considerably less than a burial. In actual fact, the significant cost difference occurs only when a family does not already possess a family grave plot, and thereby have to incur the cost of a new plot, which can indeed be expensive. Plot prices can vary, so we are always available to provide you with accurate cost information on every level.
In general, burial costs a little more than cremation. Another factor for consideration is the choice of coffin. With cremation, people often, though not always, opt for a lighter, plainer type of wood coffin in the knowledge that the coffin is cremated along with the deceased
