In the event of a failure to register a death within the stipulated period of 21 days, one has to obtain a non-objection certificate (NOC), which is issued when a Death Certificate has not been obtained for more than one year after the death.

This certificate is issued by the District Administration, to obtain the Death Certificate, which in turn is issued by the Joint Director, Health Services, of a district of Assam. The applicant can apply for the certificate at the receipt counter of the Public Facilitation Center, Deputy Commissioner's Office. The operator accepts the application and gives a computer generated receipt of the application. A printout of the certificate is taken, based on the data from the application. The certificate, along with the document, is sent to the concerned officer, and upon prior approval of the officer through a signature, the certificate is sent back to the receipt counter to be issued to the applicant.

The certificate is issued on the same day as the day of application.
