Births, Deaths and Marriages
Civil Registration during lockdown
The Civil Registry is presently closed to the general public except for the registration of deaths and some births.
These are strictly by appointment only.
Births that will be registered are those which will exceed 42 days from the date of birth before the end of lockdown. For babies born and those that will not exceed 42 days from the date of birth during the period of lockdown, they can be registered after we come out of lockdown. If you need to register a birth or a death please go to that relevant page.
The Commissioners Offices at Peel and Ramsey will also accept registrations by appointment.
If you require any copies of certificates these can be ordered by following the instructions on the Order copy certificates page and they will be posted out to you.
If you have any enquiries please contact the registry office by the contact details below.
Location
The Civil Registry, including its ceremony room, is located on the ground floor of the Registries Building on Deemsters Walk, just off Bucks Road, opposite the Courts of Justice building in Douglas.
