In the Offices of Civil Registries; Today we obtain most of the death certificates from local registry offices throughout the country. Since 1945, Dominican death records have been registered in two identical registration books at local registration offices: one remains at the local registration office and the other is sent to the central registration office in the city of Santo Domingo for your custody at the end of the year. Books that remain at the local registry office sometimes deteriorate and cannot be read, and local registry offices have to consult the second book in Santo Domingo before certificates can be issued.

The time it takes depends on two factors:

It depends on the time it takes for registration offices to enable the record to issue the certificate; This may take between 2 hours or 7 days. Normally in 24 hours is ready but this is not a rule.

It also depends on whether you use free shipping, which can take between 2 and 4 weeks or if you use the express delivery service that takes 2-3 business days.

Currently we only use PayPal; for the security it offers to you as a buyer and because you do not need to have a PayPal account to make a payment with your credit or debit card.

  • If we do not have any type of response in the first 7 working days, you should only request it and you will be reimbursed 100% of the money paid; after the 8th day [including the 8th day] 50% of the total paid is refunded.
  • Immediately we send the document by airmail means that the service was given and there is no refund

By email, the mail tray is constantly verified. You can also write to us by WhatsApp, if we do not respond immediately you should know if it will be answered.

The really important thing about the date is the year, if you don’t have the exact year, think of a time span of 3 to 4 years in which the registration could have been made.

  • Sometimes the records office may take time to enable the records to issue the inquiry sheet; Although we can get insistent with the registry office staff this is not in our hands.

    Sometimes records have errors in names or dates, correcting those errors can take several days

Normally this is not necessary; However, if we need to move personnel or incur unscheduled expenses, we will inform you of the reasons in the most detailed way possible and we will send you a quote. I reiterate that this is very rare.
