Rush service is NOT available under the following circumstances:
Rush Service is not available for delivery outside Canada.
Recent Deaths:
A certificate will be issued upon completion of the death registration. The registration
takes approximately 12 weeks from the date of death. Rush service is not available
for deaths that took place within the last 12 weeks. Please contact the Registrar’s
Office at 1-800-461-2156
1-800-461-2156 (Ontario Only) or 416-325-8305416-325-8305 if you do require a certificate
for a recent death on a rush basis.
Deaths Prior to 1991:
Death Certificate applications where the death took place prior to 1991 normally
take longer to process and therefore, rush service is not available.
Deaths Prior to 1980:
Deaths prior to 1980 may not be in electronic format. When applying for a Death
Certificate for a death that occurred prior to 1980, it can take up to an extra
6-8 weeks for the registration to be converted into electronic format before processing
can be completed and therefore, rush service is not available.
Please Note: Fees listed above are inclusive
of taxes and shipping costs. Delivery times are approximate and cannot be guaranteed.
Applications may be delayed or rejected if inadequate information is provided or
if there is a discrepancy between information provided and the government records.
If no record of the death is found by the Office of the Registrar General, fees
will be applied to the search cost and will not be refunded.
