If the death ocurred in a hospital or other institution, the hospital or the institution is obliged to report the death.
The person reporting the death is also obliged to submit the death card and the ID of the deceased to the registry. The head of the registry issues three copies of the abridged death certificate to the person reporting death, free of charge.
The death certificates are a part of the registry book and they are kept in the registry or in the Public Record Office. We can only receive the copy of the death certificate, which is colloquially called “death certificate”.
