Where we are and how to contact registrars

Changes to our services due to coronavirus (COVID-19)

We're following government advice regarding coronavirus and have had to make some changes to our services. The Register Office in the Town Hall is open for face to face appointments for some services. You won't be able to book an appointment at our Royston or Wombwell offices until further notice.

Death registration appointments are currently a telephone-only service.

It's important to read more about the changes to registration services due to coronavirus before you contact us or book an appointment. 

Visiting Barnsley Register Office

If you're coming to Barnsley Register Office you should use the nearby pay and display car parks. Appointments can take up to an hour, so please make sure your ticket covers you. 

If you're attending a ceremony please use a pay and display car park, allowing enough time for the ceremony and photographs afterwards.  

The entrance is at the side of the building, next to the fountains.

Due to coronavirus restrictions and to allow for social distancing, you'll need to wait outside the Town Hall reception until you're called in for your appointment.

Please don't arrive too early, as we won't be able to let you inside the building. There's a strict one way system in place for your safety and to minimise any contact with other customers and staff.
