Births, marriages and deaths
Salford Register Office is located at Salford Civic Centre, Chorley Road, Swinton.
The city council is responsible for the registration of births, marriages and deaths, and the issuing of birth, marriage and death certificates, for the Salford registration district. We also conduct civil marriage ceremonies, including civil partnerships and marriages in licensed premises.
