The Fiscal Officer as head of SBA Customs and Immigration has responsibility for a wide range of tasks that extend beyond those normally associated with a customs service. These include matters relating to external border control, direct and indirect taxation, and more diverse subjects such as registrar of births and deaths.

Where a dead body is found and no information as to the place of death is available, the death shall be registered by the Registrar of births and deaths for the area in which the body is found.

The person registering should give to the Registrar, before the expiration of five days from the date of death, information to the best of his knowledge and belief of the particulars required to be registered concerning the death, and in the presence of the Registrar to sign the register:

Provided that:

Where, after the expiration of the relevant period from the date of the death or finding of the dead body of any person, the death of that person has, owing to the default of the persons required to give information concerning it, not been registered, the Registrar may by notice in writing require any qualified informant:

  • the death is duly registered; or
  • an inquest is held on the death.

The Registrar must:

• upon registering the death give to the informant without fee 1 certificate of death in the prescribe form;
• upon the application of any person and upon payment of the fee set out the Registrar gives the applicant a certificate of death in the prescribed form.
