How to register a death in Aberdeen

In Aberdeen, you need to register someone's death within 8 days unless the circumstances of the death are being investigated by the Procurator Fiscal. Your local funeral director can help you with this process.

To register a death, you’ll need to make an appointment with your local Registrar’s Office. As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, this is temporarily being done by phone only, so you will not have to visit the office in person.

See the Aberdeen City Council website for more information and updates.

How much does a funeral in Aberdeen cost?

Funeral costs can be different depending on where you live in the UK. To find out how much a funeral is likely to cost at your local Co-op funeral home in Aberdeen, use our funeral cost calculator.

The cost of a funeral will depend on the choices you make. This could include what type of funeral you want (for example a direct cremation or burial, or a traditional funeral), the flowers you'd like or the type of hearse you choose.

We have a range of flexible funeral options, which means that if there’s something included in a funeral you don’t want, you may be able to remove it, and the price will be adjusted too.

Your local funeral director in Aberdeen will guide you through all our funerals and help you choose one that suits both your wishes, and your budget.

Third party costs

Where you live will also have an impact on how much a funeral will cost. This is due to costs paid on your behalf by a funeral director for services such as; church fees, cremation fees, burial fees or musicians at the funeral. These are called third party costs (sometimes called disbursements, third party fees or third party charges).

You’ll need to pay for these within 24 hours of making funeral arrangements. To find out how much third party costs may be for a cremation or a burial funeral at your local funeral home in Aberdeen, use our funeral cost calculator to see an estimate of funeral costs in Aberdeen. Your local funeral director in Aberdeen will also be able to give you accurate and up to date third party costs.
