Read aloud

If you cannot be issued a death certificate after notification of a death due to missing data or evidence, you can have the death report certified.

This certificate serves as proof that you have complied with your duty to notify.

With the certificate you can prove the proper notification of the death. The report is a prerequisite for the burial of the deceased person.
