Payments
Ceredigion County Council is endeavouring to make payments as normal during these challenging times. Whenever possible priority will be given to the small businesses, organisations and individuals that rely on regular payments from the Council for example, those in the care and transport sectors. Payments-related enquiries should be emailed to df.payments@ceredigion.gov.uk.
Registration Service
(Update 08/07/2020)
Death and still-birth registration appointments will be undertaken over the telephone. Therefore, you will not need to attend an appointment in person.
To arrange a death or still-birth registration appointment by telephone, please contact us on 01970 633580.
Birth registrations can now be undertaken. Due to the restrictions that have been in place since 23rd March 2020, we are dealing with a backlog of registrations. We will be contacting parents in priority order, based on the baby’s date of birth, to arrange a registration appointment.
Please be advised that a claim for child benefit or universal credit can be made prior to the birth being registered. Further information can be found on www.gov.uk/child-benefit/how-to-claim.
