The Registrar General’s Office (RGO), under the Ministry of Home Affairs, Religious Affairs and Transportation, is pleased to announce the successful completion of its pop-up civil registry clinic in South Caicos, held from 3–5 February 2026.
During the three-day outreach initiative, the RGO processed 258 birth and death certificate applications. Although marriage certificates and amendments were not initially included in the scope of services, the team also facilitated the reprint of three (3) urgent marriage certificates and completed five (5) correction of error amendments, bringing the total number of applications processed to 266.
This performance exceeds the results of the previous financial year’s outreach to North and Middle Caicos, during which just over 210 applications were processed. The increased uptake underscores both the strong public demand for vital registration services and the effectiveness of targeted, on-island service delivery initiatives.
The South Caicos clinic was specifically designed to provide residents with convenient access to birth and death certificate reprints without the need to travel to Providenciales or Grand Turk. Feedback from residents was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing appreciation for the reduction in travel expenses, processing times, and logistical challenges.
Registrar General, Ms. Kayon Cox, commented on the success of the initiative:
“The strong turnout in South Caicos reaffirms our commitment to ensuring equitable access to civil registration services across all islands. Processing 266 applications within three days reflects both the clear demand for these services and the dedication of our team to delivering timely, efficient, and responsive service to the public. We thank the District Commissioner’s office in South Caicos for their support throughout out this process and look forward to doing this again soon.”
The Registrar General’s Office remains committed to expanding outreach efforts and strengthening access to essential civil registration services throughout the Turks and Caicos Islands.
