Baptism certificates

Do you need a copy of your baptism certificate for a wedding or confirmation?

If you require a copy of your baptism certificate please call the Record Office on 44 (0)1244 972574 with details of the church, date of birth, name and name of parents, and approximate date of baptism if known. If we hold the baptism register and can find the entry, we can supply a copy of the baptism certificate. We type the details exactly as they appear onto an official form and certify it as accurate. Latest charges for this can be found here. This can be paid by card over the telephone in advance. If you do not know the church or date then we can carry out a short search on your behalf (the charge for this is waived if we go on to supply you with a certificate).  To see a full list of the baptism registers we hold please see our parish register index (PDF 1.57MB).  If we do not hold the register then contact the church to see if it is still held there.
