About this translation
In the United States, a death is registered by the state where it occurred. Certified copies of the death certificate are issued by the state vital records office or by the county, and some large cities such as New York City issue their own. The document shows the identity of the deceased, the date and place of death, age and marital status, the informant and, depending on the state, the cause of death and burial or cremation details.
When do you need it translated?
Opening an estate with a notaire in France
Claiming a survivor's pension (pension de réversion) from a French pension fund
Receiving a life insurance payout or closing bank accounts
Recording the death of a French national in French civil status
Remarriage or a PACS for the surviving spouse
Our translation
The certified translation covers the whole document, including the medical section, the signatures of the physician and the registrar, stamps and security features. The format depends on the state and the year of issue: pick the version matching your certificate, or “Other states/years” if it is not listed.
