have a look at the first post on this topic ... here

It doesnt matter where you put the reference details - somewhere on the order form, or even better on an attached page.

I dont believe the GRO charge any extra for postage outside Ireland. €4 for a research cert - once you include the references

It cost me 4 Euro (£3.61) for a photocopy of an original record with the search discount for adding information to the form. I paid by entering my debit card details. It took about 10 days for a delivery to the UK.

I have mentioned this before before just for any new people

I have found if you fill in the form with as much information as you have, even if that is only a name; then enter the Quarter, Year, Volume No. and Page No. where it asks for the date; and the location as the District

This is how I have completed the form.

If you have more information:
such as Father or Mother's name for Births;
Spouse for Marriage (even a first name);
Occupation for Death;
it will help if the record is not located and a search is required.

The fees on all the forms are now shown as:
Note 1
If the record you have requested cannot be found, a search fee of €4.00 will be charged.

Note 2
Photocopies of entries in the registers are also available at a cost of €6.00, (additional copies - €4.00). These contain exactly the same information as a Certificate but are only of use for research purposes

I haven't had to order certs recently but they have obviously increased the fee

I ordered a photocopy very recently and was still charged just €4. The website has said €6 for some time now, so there appears to be a slight discrepancy between the info on the website and actual practice.

Has anyone been able to send in a request for a certificate by email?  I've ordered a couple by snail mail which I have not received yet (Australia) but realized there is another which would suit my purpose better and would love to be able to just send the order form over the net.  Anyone ever managed it?  If so what address did you use? 
Regards Gerry.

I dont believe there is any way to use email for ordering - as well as by post you can also contact the GRO by phone or fax. See : http://www.groireland.ie/fees.htm

p.s. you can also order certain certs from the HSE (Health Service Executive) - see : link, but they dont cover all dates, require more details, cost more than a research cert, and do not use the same Index references
