The local Civil Registry office is tentatively planning to reopen on June 1st. Until then, different procedures can be done online, and at the office only in emergency cases for death or birth certificates. Furthermore, through the duration of the health alert due to Covid-19, marriage procedures and others that would imply a large gathering of people will not take place.
Civil Registry Director Claudia Lugo Gámez specified the only two official websites for Registry paperwork are: www.registrocivil.sonora.gob.mx and www.gob.mx/actas
For urgent procedures regarding birth or death certificates, contact 638 384 2928. The Puerto Peñasco Civil Registry is located at Avenida Agustín Melgar y calle Ruiz Cortinez, No. 309, in the Centro neighborhood.
