Frequently
Asked Questions
How many copies of the death certificate do I need?
Since a properly completed Certificate of Death, signed
by the attending physician or coroner will have been prepared and
given to you, you will already have one copy to record with the
appropriate government agencies. Many times, a copy of the original
will suffice to prove a death has occurred. You may need additional
copies to include with your insurance or tax records, however. Since
this document is a public document, additional certified copies
can always be obtained at a later time if required.
