Just to elaborate a little on the previous posts, all National Records of Scotland are accessible on Scotland’s People Website https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk
If you are looking for historic records, rather than recent records you can purchase credits which will allow you to access the files on a pay-per-view option. Once you are sure that you have landed on the correct record, pay the required number of credits and the full record is then shown on your screen with the option to download and/or print.
This option is only available for historic records, recent records must be ordered. Details below.
Statutory registers of births (older than 100 years), marriages (older than 75 years) and deaths (older than 50 years), census returns, church registers (Old Parish Records) of births and baptisms, marriages, deaths and burials and other events currently cost 6 credits (£1.50). Credits can be purchased as 30/40/80/160 bundles. There’s more, but this will give you a quick idea.
If you are in Scotland, you can book a computer session at Scotland’s People centres, where you can access both recent and historic records. Since covid, the option to print the records has been withdrawn, but you can still take notes of all the essential information that the records hold.
