These are the only places where the GRO provides an up-to-date set of index microfiches each quarter. As they are no longer allowed to sell them I doubt you will find anything more up-to-date than those on Ancestry and FMP anywhere abroad.

I am sure that there must be other places outside the UK that hold sets of the England & Wales BMD's on Microfiche, it is a pity the the GRO site does not include these as known International sites. For example the Auckland Public Library does hold a set, however I am unsure as to if it is complete meaning up to 2016 with Births and Deaths plus Marriage to 2014. When I did look at these some years ago what they held was up to 2000 if memory serves me correctly. I note the GRO England & Wales Microfiche of BDM's does not show up in the online index for the Auckland Public Library.

Hmm, Sounds like an add on for the FreeBMD project to me as that is the only easy way for non UK folks to actually see if any of their surname they are doing their ONS on shows up or not in any post 2000 Microfiche. All other methods will cost on an hourly basis. Regards, David J Grimshaw (or is it Grimason?) Genealogical Researcher of the "Grimason" surname and variations of the "Grimason" surname World Wide.
