Some request methods allow you to obtain a digital copy of the Full Copy of the Death Record. If you need to send it to a Foreign Country, this may not be sufficient as the document might need to be legalized or apostilled. In cases where legalization or apostille of the document is required, you must request a paper copy of the document signed with the handwritten signature of a municipal official whose signature is registered at the territorially competent Prefecture.
