Yukon became a separate territory in 1898. Some birth records began to be made about 1896, when the Yukon was part of the Northwest Territories. Birth registration continued when the Yukon Territory took over the responsibility in 1898. Marriages and deaths began to be recorded in 1899.  

If a certificate is not specifically requested then the information found is included in letter form. All search requests must be in writing. Full information and application forms are online.
