Birth, marriage, death certificates can be ordered online

Islanders have better and easier access to their records as they can now apply and pay for birth, marriage and death certificates online, says Health and Wellness Minister Doug Currie.

“The new Vital Statistics service will make it easier for Islanders to access the records they need in a timely manner, particularly those who were born or married in the province but do not reside in PEI,” said the minister.

Islanders are now able to apply and pay online for birth, marriage and death certificates by visiting www.gov.pe.ca/vitalstatistics. Persons interested in applying to be a Marriage Commissioner may make an application and pay online and licenced Marriage Commissioners can renew their current licenses using this online service.
