[WSBAPT] Death certificate for decedent who died abroad

[Jennifer Y. Sohn]

Usually, a translated copy of a foreign death certificate will work. You would need to get it translated and notarized, I believe. I don’t think WA will issue another death certificate.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Death certificate for decedent who died abroad

 

Decedent (resident of Pierce county) died while in the Phillipines. His son brought him back to the U.S. and received some type of death record from the Phillipines. Does he still need to get a death certificate issued here in WA?
