Service records
Army service records are held by Service Number, Rank, Full Name and Date of Birth. It is important that as much of this information as possible is provided, together with the Regiment or Corps if known, to assist in locating the correct record.
Certificate of Kinship
Information from the personal record of a deceased Ex-serviceman/woman can
be released only with the consent of the official Next of Kin. The Certificate
of Kinship form aims to identify whose consent is required and
the data you provide will be used only in connection with
your enquiry. This form is retained for 2 years should you have subsequent
queries.
There is no charge for enquiries from widows or widowers about their late spouse's service but for all other customers the charge is £30.00. A cheque, bank draft or postal order made payable to 'MOD Accounting Officer' should be included with the completed Certificate of Kinship and Search Document. No other form of payment can be accepted.
