As Heywood says a photocopy (including postage to UK) is only 8 euros. For research purposes this is  all you need.

Not sure where the figure of 8 euros came from  :-\

The photocopy is 4 euros.

Research certs are €4, once no search is required. i.e. if you include the correct references from the BMD Index.

see : Ordering Certs from GRO Roscommon

not sure what you mean ... it's the same process no matter where you are ..

1. download the order form and print it out
2. fill in your address and credit card details on the form
3. on a separate sheet write the references of the certs you require, and also mention you require research certs.
4. post the order to GRO Head Office in Roscommon

there is an online facility mentioned on the GRO website, but it's for ordering more recent certs for passports etc.  Orders for research certs by post are usually processed quite quickly - sometimes within a couple of days, although there can be times when they get busy and orders take up to 3 weeks.

As far as I know, you have to download a form and send for the certificate. That's another  :( :'(

Hi Heywood,

I've ordered a lot of certs recently so I'm not sure if the receipt I've found is for two certs or one cert plus postage to UK :-\

I think a new sticky thread is needed for the whole ordering certs info and this quote needs to be right on top.
I remember reading pages and pages before I figured it out first time around.
