Registering the death is something that the funeral director unfortunately cannot do for you.
Registration of death in the majority of cases is completed by the next of kin or close relative who should register the death at the registrars within the area where the death occurred, and within 5 days. If no relative is available, the registration can be carried out by any person who is present at the death, the occupier of the premises where the death occurred or the person accepting responsibility for arranging the funeral.
