Quebec, Government Birth, Marriage, and Death Records - International Institute

The new civil code came into effect 1 January 1994 which made births, marriages and deaths a civil matter. For births, marriages and deaths from 1994 onwards certificates must be requested from the Civil State Office. The person applying must have a legal right to a certificate and genealogical research is not considered sufficient cause. Contact the office directly to discern whether you do qualify. English-language service is offered on the website.

Applications are available for download.
