Get a Death Certificate in Washington County, KS
This service isn't handled by the County Clerk. Here's where to go instead.
Death certificates are issued by Kansas Vital Records, not the County Clerk.
🌐 Go to the official portalkdhe.ks.gov ↗Kansas death certificates are on file from 1 July 1911 onward. Each certified copy costs $20.00 under K.A.R. 28-17-6 — there is no cheaper rate for extra copies. That fee buys a five-year search (the year you give plus two either side, or a five-year span you choose), and it is kept even if no record is found. Pay by check or money order made out to Kansas Vital Statistics; do not send cash. Mail it to the Office of Vital Statistics, 1000 SW Jackson Street, Suite 120, Topeka — not to this office.
⚠️ This office does not process death certificates. Use the agency linked above. The office below is your county's County Clerk — useful for other services.
