Type of certificate issued
All certificates issued by Worcestershire Registration Service are known as 'certified copies of an entry'. This means that it is a legal copy of the registration contained within the Birth, Marriage, Death or Civil Partnership Register.
Birth certificates issued by Worcestershire Registration Services are the 'full birth certificate'. This is the one that includes parents' details and is used to obtain passports, open bank accounts, for Job applications, Driving licences etc. We no longer issue short birth certificates.
