The Affidavit For Death Certificate is a crucial document in the Philippine civil registration system, required when registering a death, correcting information in an existing death certificate, or processing delayed registration of death. This affidavit serves as a sworn statement providing detailed information about the deceased person, including their personal information, date and place of death, and circumstances surrounding the death. It is governed by Philippine law, specifically the Civil Registration Law (Act No. 3753) and various administrative orders from the Philippine Statistics Authority. The document is typically executed by a close relative or someone with direct knowledge of the death and must be notarized to establish its legal validity. It plays a vital role in ensuring accurate vital statistics records and is often required for various legal proceedings, insurance claims, and estate settlements.
