Order a copy certificate
Due to a high demand for copy certificates, there is a delay issuing certificates within 15 working days.
If your certificate is issued after 15 working days we will post your certificate out by 1st class post. Alternatively, you can email register.office@redbridge.gov.uk to collect the certificate. Please remember to add details of your order to the email.
