Our Mission

About our goal

Registration of public records is an essential administrative function of any country. In Guyana, the system of registration developed in the late eighteen hundreds with both written and microfilmed records. This process has continued to date with changes to include record digitization. Housed in the Guyana Post Office Corporation Building, Robb Street Georgetown, GRO aims to provide the following services.

Our Mission Statement

The General Register Office aims to provide information with minimum delay and to maintain and secure national registers and registration forms such as birth, death and marriage of both Guyanese and foreign nationals in Guyana.
