Australian Death Notification Service

Let organisations know that someone has died

The death of someone close to you can be a difficult time and there can be a lot to organise. The Australian Death Notification Service allows you to notify multiple organisations online that someone has died so their accounts can be closed or transferred.
Before you get started: A death certificate needs to have been issued for the person who died. However, you don’t need to have the certificate with you to use this service.

What information you need

To use this service, you need to provide details of the person who died, including:

• full name
• date of birth
• date of death
• state or territory where they died
• last known residential address

Check statements, bills, and other important paperwork to find out where the person who died held accounts. This may help when choosing organisations and services to notify.
