Reading: My wife’s mother passed away in Chandigarh in 2004, and the hospital provided us with a death report. Now, in 2016, my wife needs to obtain her mother’s death certificate. Could you please guide us on where to get this certificate, whether it’s from the Municipal Corporation office, and what documents are required? My wife only has the death report and her birth certificate to prove her relationship to her mother. Additionally, can someone else we know obtain the certificate, or is it only available to family members? The death report includes the date and time of death, hospital name, residential address, cause of death, and registration number.

You can obtain the death certificate from the Municipal Corporation office in Chandigarh. You will need the death report, your wife’s birth certificate, and proof of her identity. While it is generally issued to family members, a third party can obtain it with proper authorization and supporting documentation.
