Gloucestershire Registration Service

Who are we?

Gloucestershire Registration Service is a Gloucestershire County Council service. Part of this, our Copy Certificate service is based at Gloucestershire Archives.

What do we do?

Our Copy Certificate service provides copy certificates of births, marriages / civil partnerships and deaths registered in Gloucestershire. You can order these online at gloucestershire.gov.uk/certificates

Our other services, run from different premises, are: registering births and deaths; taking notices of marriage and civil partnership; conducting marriage, civil partnership, baby naming and renewal of vows ceremonies, enabling civil partners to convert their partnership into a marriage; and citizenship ceremonies for those achieving British nationality; registering buildings for ceremonies; nationality checking; and European passport return.

For more information please visit gloucestershire.gov.uk/registration

Part of Gloucestershire Heritage Hub

Our Copy Certificate staff will have a purpose built office in the new onsite Heritage Hub, just off the main reception. They’ll also have quicker access to the registers needed for making copy certificates. So they’ll be able to offer even better levels of customer service.

The Copy Certificate service will operate as normal during works to create the Heritage Hub at Alvin Street, due to begin in the New Year.   Onsite customers will be able to reach them by following directional signage to the Archives’ temporary reception.
