The Registrar is more correctly known as the Registrar of Births Deaths and Marriages, but not all sub offices will necessarily perform all functions – ring them and ask. Please don’t confuse the Registrar of Births, Death and Marriages with the Probate Registries, which are Courts dealing with the estate of the deceased after death. The Probate Registry has no connection with registering deaths.
You should also check out the Tell Us Once service, it’s really useful.
