I am trying to find a sample copy of a BD8 (England and Wales) or a 334/SI Scotland  Certificate of Registration of death

Can you find one online?  either blank or completed as a sample   

Thanks

    Highly unlikely you will be able to get a sample, as it could be altered etc.
    What do you need for as it may be worth contacting your local registy office to see if they can assist.

    BD8 aka "the White Form" is just a certificate that is used for informing DWP of the death and is provided by the Registar of Births and Deaths at the council free of charge when someone tells them. (Unlike the chargeable copies of the death certificate proper).

    Here's a typical Council web page where it's mentioned https://www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/births-marriages-deaths-and-civil-partnerships/register-a-death/  They issue the form even though it is usually not actually needed any more in most cases.

    There'll be a reason that blank forms aren't available, probably?
