Cost of BMD certificates

[palaja]

Having looked on the web to find the address of Bishop's Stortford Registry Office in order to order a copy of a 1921 marriage certificate  I find that I have to pay £25.00 to bmd-certificates.co.uk to obtain it. Is this now the standard price for all copies of certificates? I realise it is sometime since I last bought one, but the price seems to have trebled. No doubt someone can put me right.

Hi palaja

If you have the GRO reference* the price is £7 from the GRO http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/

 

*and if you don't I bet we can find it for you

Thanks for the prompt answer. I have got the reference from FreeBMD. Will that be the GRO reference?

[Tati]

Yes! Quarter & year, registration district, volume number and page number

Thanks Tati

By the way I see the charge at the GRO site is now £10, and £7 for additional copies.

Only £7.00 when you supply the GRO Refn .....

You're correct. Have now ordered for £7.00.
