Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic the Isle of Man Central Registry has introduced a simplified and safe process for registering a birth or a death, by enabling all informants to register through Government online services.
This temporary measure means that informants will no longer be required to officially sign the register in person at the Civil Registry. Furthermore, for the registration of deaths, Funeral Directors can now act as informants if instructed to do so by a relative of the deceased.
Individuals will also be able to order and pay for the required number of certificates online during the registration process and be able to access the service through a desktop, laptop or smartphone.
