Get a Death Certificate in Greene County, VA
This service isn't handled by the Circuit Court Clerk. Here's where to go instead.
Death certificates are issued by Virginia Vital Records, not the County Clerk.
🌐 Go to the official portalvdh.virginia.gov ↗You may not need to post anything. Any Virginia local health department can issue a death certificate no matter where in Virginia the death happened, and every DMV customer service center sells them over the counter — DMV uses its own form DL 82 rather than this one. Neither is this office. Virginia charges $15.00 for each certification, and keeps it as a search fee if no record is found; a returned check costs a further $50.00. Make it payable to State Health Department and enclose an enlarged, clearly legible photocopy of your ID. Posting this takes about four weeks against roughly two weeks online.
⚠️ This office does not process death certificates. Use the agency linked above. The office below is your county's Circuit Court Clerk — useful for other services.
