Hi Penny, I regularly order certs from the GRO, it takes about 3-4 weeks normally for them to arrive here in the United Arab Emirates.

No problems for me, as long as you have a credit card you are ok.

Obviously from USA it will be charged in £s and converted then into dollars by the credit card company.

A lot of people on here are from the states, Aus, NZ and europe and sometimes they have got the certs quicker than us - lol. Im sure its the same price even if you are overseas. I expect some of our cousins over the pond will be on soon and can reassure you.

Hi Heather ...

Thanks very much for your assistance - I'm trying to help someone in Florida and didn't want to give them incorrect information!

Yep, lots of people do it and I believe its the same price as us UK people. Just looked on there and the only difference seems to be a couple of extra days delivery.

Go there and register and youll probably see that overseas countries are included in the registration process for delivery address.

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to order GRO certificates online from their website - but placing the order from outside the UK.

(I've had a look through their website, but can't see anything obvious to answer this!)

Any information much appreciated.
