I lost my official birth certificate.聽 The UK government doesn't seem to make it easy to get a replacement copy.聽 I was born the son of a UK national in Nairobi, Kenya - a few years before independence - and the birth was recorded by the assistant Registrar-General.

Where can I order a replacement copy of the birth certificate?聽 The GRO in UK says they don't have those records. I looked through microfiches from the RG 36 collection and didn't find records like that.

Any help would be very greatly appreciated.

You get it from the council in the town where you where born.

Very easy to get just call or email the births and deaths office
