Death Abroad

Registering the Death of an American Abroad

Notice to American Citizens:

If you want to register the death of your spouse, child or parent, you must come to the American Citizens Services Section of the U.S. Consulate. You will need to bring the original death certificate issued by the Israeli or Palestinian Authority Ministry of Interior. You must also bring proof that your relative was a U.S. citizen, such as a U.S. Passport, U.S. birth certificate, or Certificate of Naturalization and his/her social security number.

We will issue 10-20 death certificates, as per your request, free of charge. Processing usually takes two weeks.
