Vital Statistics
Government Services regulates the registration of all vital events that occur in Alberta such as births, deaths, adoptions, marriages, and changes of
name. Vital Statistics also provides statistical information to governments and approved health related agencies for comparison and research.
In addition, the Vital Statistics office is responsible for the registration of religious organizations and clergy who perform marriages, marriage
commissioner appointments and providing burial permits. The office also processes delayed registration events and amendments to event records.
Most Vital Statistics' services are provided through the registry agent network, including the issuance of marriage licences and applications for
birth, marriage and death certificates.
