WHAT'S THE DRILL?
In the aftermath of a person's passing, the first step is registering the death with the office of Births, Deaths and Marriages in the respective state or territory. This initiates the issuance of the official death certificate – a vital piece of paperwork with its own set of guidelines in each Australian state and territory.

THE WHY BEHIND THE CERTIFICATE
But why is this piece of paper so crucial? In Australia, the registration of death with the office of Births, Deaths and Marriages is mandatory. It's not just a formality; there are logistical reasons too. Before the cremation or funeral proceedings can unfold, certain paperwork must be in order. Moreover, if you find yourself in the role of the next of kin or executor of a Will, the death certificate becomes indispensable. It serves as a linchpin in the estate administration process, facilitating the execution of the deceased's wishes and the distribution of assets to the rightful beneficiaries.

THE ARRIVAL OF THE CERTIFICATE
Now, the burning question – when and how do you get your hands on the death certificate? Opting for Funera Sydney for cremation arrangements simplifies this process. We dispatch the death certificate to your doorstep via Express Post, sparing you from the hassle of obtaining it yourself. As an added service, we provide four certified copies, sparing the next of kin from the intricate task of finding a certifier. We advise families to allow approximately four weeks from the cremation date for the death certificate to reach them. While we strive for efficiency, occasional delays may occur, especially if there's a bottleneck in processing at the office of Births, Deaths and Marriages. In cases involving the Coroner, who determines the cause of death, additional time may be required.
