Adoption Registration Service

Unfortunately, our service which checks for a record of a Civil Death Registration in England, Wales and the Isle of Man on behalf of adoptees and birth relatives to establish if an adoptee or birth relative is recorded as having died, is under review and is therefore not currently available. Following the review, our website will be updated.

You can also use this service to forward information about hereditary medical conditions to an adoptee's or birth relative's GP. This service remains operational at this time.
