Death certificates can be ordered from any county in Minnesota (we use Olmsted County, Rochester, MN). The charges for death certificates are currently $13.00 for the first copy and $6.00 for each additional copy ordered at the same time. When using our Simply Cremation Plan, Minnesota residents will be required to obtain certified copies of the death certificate on their own.
