Replace dozens of websites and forms with a single source of truth. GOV+ manages all your government applications in one place, with one streamlined process — so you never lose sight of the big picture.
Death certificates are critical documents for legal and logistical purposes, serving as an official record of the event. After a loved one has passed, it must be officially logged in state and federal records and verified via a US death certificate. You may need this official documentation to receive pension or life insurance payouts, plan a funeral or cremation, settle their estate, and more, to serve as legal proof of the individual’s passing.
Death certificate copies are distributed through your County Clerk’s office and must be requested using legal identification. If you’re looking to get a copy hassle-free, use GOV+’s online platform to begin requesting a copy.
It depends on the state. In some states, death certificates are a matter of public record. In many other states, access is restricted to authorized individuals, which can include parents, legal guardians, spouses, siblings, children, and grandchildren, as well as law enforcement agencies, estate representatives, and even relevant research groups.
To obtain a copy—or copies—of a death certificate, you’ll likely pay a mandatory government fee of about $5 to $40 dollars, depending on the state.
GOV+ takes the stress out of government transactions — including concerns about your data. Count on industry-leading security and privacy protection to keep your information safe.
